[M&J]

Thanks Ray! I looked at the variety of production folders I have and those use significantly thicker liners so this isn't an issue. One of the knives with slightly thinner liners used standoffs so the liner itself isn't tapped. That variant allows enough screw into the standoff. This has a larger bearing surface on the liner and clip to support the clip tension. The simple solution is to use a thicker liner.

One of my older pieces an owner contacted me about adding a clip. That had me pondering ways with those thinner liner folder patterns.
