Which slipjoint kit

[ashwinearl]

Hi All,

Well I've been struggling with making a slipjoint from scratch, and it just isn't working. 3 blades, 2 springs, 4 liners, etc... you get the picture.

I'm going to cut my losses, and start over using a kit as a template.

There are only a few slipjoint kits around, just wondering if there is one that stands out as better than the rest.

Texas knife, and K&G seem to sell the same slipjoint kits. Koval has a couple of styles that the other two don't have.

and there is also this place that has some styles not seen elsewhere

I guess I can also just buy a knife and take it apart.

thanks
