I have a folder that is finished and ready for delivery except I cannot find thumb bobs long enough to use on it. I looked in Texas Knifemaker's Supply catalog and it says their bobs are 3/8" long and despite being assured they were 3/8" long when I called to order them, it turned out they are only 3/16" long.
I need a pair of thumb bobs that are 1/4" long and use a 2-56 screw. I prefer non knurled bobs but if thats all I can get I'll take them. If someone custom makes thumb bobs please email me asap. I need to get this folder out within the next 2 weeks if at all possible.
Thanks big time for help on this one!!!!!

Heres a picture of the folder so you can see why it requires longer bobs than usual. The bobs sit down in the frame so you can't get your thumb behind or between the bob and the frame to push the blade open.
