Marty: Next time you have your hollow ground tips, camera and the inclination, could you take a pic of the rear trigger plate screw with the "+" sign. I have yet to see one and it is nice to have the confirmation of the reason for that mark.
Dean & Patrick: I too was surprised at the V notches completely cut across. I have not seen that. I have two apart at the moment (108603 and 145522). The safety spring sits in a much smaller milled depression centered in the tang, as Dean describes. I have had a few apart and that has been consistent. I can see how the V notch would perform the same function but have yet to see one like that. So... when I do see one like that, it won't be a surprise.
Cheers,
Jack
