    You put a recess at the end of the tang to accept the sleeve . Yes ?


    You guys caught the trick huh??

    The old one was free floating so that the pivot hole was just through the Ivory, which I thought was a touch weak in the design dept.... So I used a Gun trick on it,, I couldn't drill straight through the tang stub or it would have been to short so I used a touch over a 1/2 a hole through the very end of the stub so the the brass tube locks it all together... But I figured just because I could do it the old fashioned way didn't mean I wasn't going to add a touch of modern technology, so I used Epoxy also

    That looks great. I bet it looks better now then it did when it came from the factory, way back when.
