    I guess I should come clean and be more specific with my question. The knife you see in the scans below is a linerless slip joint with a very strong back spring by todays standards. The scales are G10 but there are no brass or nickle silver liners to give support while opening and closing this knife. It is a very neat knife to say the least and I wish to make it my every day carry but my concern is that the pivot pin and or the middle spring pin will eventually push through the G10 scales due to the pressure of the back spring. I am almost certain that wood or bone scales without liners would not survive the pressure of the backspring but I know next to nothing about G10.

    Will someone advise me?
