Hi guys, pardon the newbie question. I've noticed on a lot of the pics posted in this forum that the pins securing the covers on traditional knives are sunken or recessed from the surface of the covers. This is even evident on the higher end GEC Northfield knives. Is this normal? Also the degree of recess is not consistent on both covers and also across individual units of the same model. Is this a sign of poor workmanship? The reason I'm asking is because I can only buy my knives online without the chance to handle them and I only have the photos posted by the dealers to work on. I don't want to have to order a knife from halfway around the world only to need to send it back due to poor quality control. Thanks for your help!
