Thank you everyone for your replies. I love the sharing of knowledge. I have come up with a temporary fix. I took a plastic knife edge guard (4.5″), cut it in two along the fold where the knife edge (if you put a knife in it), ground it down so the two sides sat flat against each other (and fitted better into the jaws), taped them together and used the jaws as a template to drill two holes in it for the depth key (upper holes) then taped it up along the ‘fold’ and up the sides to provide a hinge for it and keep everything lined up. It worked pretty well on my late Father’s fishing knife. While it still flexed a little bit, it took out the majority of the flex.
I would like to see WE produce a set of jaws that can replace the std jaws (using the pins makes it easy!) in the “T” or whale tail shape. Also the same with the low angle adapter – making a set of jaws that are like this and replaceable using the pins of the Gen 3 Pro rather than being an add on that requires Allen keys.
Hopefully too the low angle adaptor helps me with these narrow fishing knives and stops me grinding the jaws!
Thank you again!
Brett
