The 4 penny finishing nail is 5/64 and it matches my steel knives.  I just don't like brass, aluminum, or SS.  If I need a bigger pin I go to 6 penny finishing nail.  Just my personal preference.

Outstanding workmanship on both pieces. Your friend is as fine a quill worker as you are a bladesmith.
