Is it just me or is a relatively large chunk of the lock-face missing on the tang of my 0801 :eek:

Mine has a sort of bevel there too. I think it was machined there to smooth the lock up between the tang and lock bar face. :confused:
 
Ok that makes me feel a little better. For a while there I thought I sheared off a corner of my lock-bar :eek:
 
Pretty sure that is there so the sharp edge of the blade tang doesn't mare the lockface when disengaging.
