Thanks for pointing out a few details, like that apron around barrel tang, and lock mouldings, no trouble
at all to address those. Thanks for that info on the numbers for the thumbpiece, very interesting!!
would almost seem like you could use no. like for a month and the last 2 numbers in a year, for example 1-22 and that would all fall into that category except the last 2 months of the year for the top no. 'just a thought' and I'm sure there would be other ways to apply it as well.
Thanks I appreciate it.
