I did not like the action on either of those. It did not matter how much I played with the bearings, tightened or loosened the pivots, or lubed the bearings...action was gritty and not what Shiro's are known for. ETA - Thanks WIC, fixed the list. |

They even blended the case with the slide serrations and contours. |

Originally Posted By WIC: How is aluminum "soft"? Typical milling vise jaws are hardened and ground tool steel. Soft jaws is just the term for something softer than hardened tool steel that can be machined for specific applications. They are usually aluminum or some non-hardened steel. In this case, I cut pockets in them to hold the scales so I can get at the back side to finish the internal machining. |

Picked up some natural micarta scales for the Kapara. It needed some texture. The original G10 scales were really slick. I can imagine it could get away from you with wet hands. Looks like my edge could use a little freshening up. Attached File Attached File |
