Thanks for the kind feedback fellas. :)
 
Yeah... that's glorious. The fittings are great

I really like the take down design, Fit and finish are impeccable!!!!

Excellent workmanship.

Thanks fellas - much appreciated. FYI, the threaded section has to be made out of non heat treated stainless. If you heat treat the threaded section along with the knife, it will break when snugged up - too brittle. Furthermore, you can't soften it with a torch because CPM-154 air quenches itself.
