Yer going to have some pretty cool icicles from all that snow on your roof! I'm guessing the car is red.I've got a riddle for you RB. What color is my wifes car?
That's a trick question. As long as it looks like this her car is white!!! So what did I win!!?? [emoji12]I've got a riddle for you RB. What color is my wifes car?
Note 5!!!
I'm not 360, but I can answer your question. The copper color on the brass fitting, is from acid flux used while soldering. (a little too much). which explains the completely filled gas escape hole. Again, a little too much. In this case, solder. The excess can be easily removed, by either heating to remove some of the solder, or drilling a new hole thru it.
It looks like someone got into a bit of a hurry late in the Friday Shift, and had his or her mind on the time clock!
As this is a safety concern, (the hole is for venting gases), unless you are familiar with the processes to fix it, I would send her into Provape for repair. It can be dangerous as it is.
The soldering acid can be tricky as well. It can remain, although not seeable, and its fumes can cause corrosion in the device.
I use a solution in the shop of baking soda, and water to remove any unseen acid after soldering. But I do not work on electronics.
This an example of a soldering technique I developed, that makes the solder joint appear as one integral (Solid Piece of Steel) The Guard is 416SS, the Blade and thru tang are 154CPM High Speed SS, and the solder is 425 degree, lead free solder.
This leaves the look and impression of the blade and guard being heun from one solid piece of steel. It's incredibly strong. But if any soldering acid is left remaining, even inside the joint, it will ruin both the effect and strength over time.
This has been an Achilles Heal of fine Knifes for decades, if not centuries. Many Knife Makers are not using my process and techniques. which I openly shared.

Much much thanks! I believe you nailed it so I just opened a ticket with a pic of both my R's. I'm not worried as I'm very very very confident the Mothership will resolve the issue in a timely manner. Stuff happens /lol

Hi Knife,
I want to clear up your post because a lot of mis information was put out there in regards to how our product is built.
This supposed gas escape hole is not a gas hole at all and the hole is ok if it's filled with solder.
No drilling or modifications should be done to this part and it's certainly not someone getting lazy on the job or rushing, that's how the part is supposed to be made.
It's not a vent hole and it's not dangerous as you suggest.
Hopefully that helps clear up this post.
Joykill..........It's coming anyway!! LOL
So you really want the news?
