Cool Correct Size Corby Bolt

Hi All

I just received a TBS Bushmaster Boar knife blade that I need to put a handle on. The tang has three holes that measure 6.05mm (0.238 or 15/64 in). That is 12 thousands under 1/4". In two of the holes I would like to put Corby bolts, and a lanyard pin in the 3rd hole.

But, I'll be ####ed if I can find the correct size bolt little lone the lanyard pin.

Most Corby bolts I find are to big, having a 1/4" shaft. I find some smaller but they seem too small like 3/16" WTF!

The question is two fold really, First, is there a supplier that has what I need? and second, how small is too small? I would guess that I should only have about 3 thou "slop" in my pins.


Any help would be great!

Cheers
Bill
