Re: are bobc mechanisms difficult
Well…. It might be a good time to start getting familiar with the inner workings of what you’re collecting…. Of most vintage autos ( for me) the Italian are the easiest to work on .

Re: are bobc mechanisms difficult
If you rotate the blade closed, can you see the lock slot on the butt of the blade-tang ? If so, are the edges crisp ? Or chipped out/worn

Re: Care to see some really old Sheffield knives, anyone?
Neat old Wragg there, yes the handles are ivory. I sent you a message with some information about it. I just acquired a very old knife made in Sheffield. Goins says it's pre civil war. The scales are in pretty rough shape but the knife functions quite well for being 160+ years old. DSC_0011.JPGDSC_0...

Re: Modifying Latama Walt's Classic
With a false edge on the bayonet it doesn’t seem like regrinding it would have favorable results, might be better to just pick up a knife with the blade you like.

Re: OTF Strength?
It depends on what you’re doing with your knife, if being deployed to cut , most with a quality blade will do, if used for self defense or stabbing some will fail if you hit bone. Ive taken a couple cheap ones and drove them with a hammer into wood and they collapsed … none spec out there stay/locki...

Re: Any possibility to repair a small crack on the handle?
Hi, put a drop of superglue or other brand on a surface, take a pin & dip it in the glue , put the pin with glue on it in the blemish, “wick” it off the pin. The medium viscosity would work. Any excess glue can be sanded off . Good luck.
