6- a lot of filing and sanding till just a touch HIGH.....
7-ONCE I FELT GOOD ABOUT shape and fit......WET SAND
8-finished up ::tu:: (CERTAIN ANGLES LOOK LIKE A GAP,BUT PRETTY TIGHT) ::paranoid::
9-done.....i weighed and same weight as plastic.....and a little longer to help keep junk/lint/coins OUT


ALL IN ALL........... i like the look better ::nod::
way easier than the last SPEEDSAFE ASSISTED OPENER i did.......
and way less time.....about 2 hours??? total

and it passed the :"TIFFY TEST".............tiff runs her fingers over every knife i show her...if she feels SHARP EDGES.......she say EWWWW I DONT LIKE THAT RIGHT THERE.... ::super_happy::

when i passed her this , and said LOOK what i did babe.. ::pray:: ...she felt and said.... NICE AN SMOOTH!
