The red dots on these knives are not just a depression painted with red paint. There is an actual red plastic rod inlaid in the scale and finished flush.

Cool Bill. I had no idea they used an inlaid disc for a red dot.
Been here darn near 10 years and learn something everyday.

If Mrs. DeShivs let's you come out for a beer I'm buying. 8)
