Where can I get bronze washers the same thickness as the original Byrd Hawkbill washers? I can find all kinds of them just not as thin.

Do you have any Delicas or Enduras to compare the washers to? PacificSons sells the Delica/Endura washers by themselves but I don't think they list the dimensions.

I thought about this more and I think it would be a slim chance both factories used the same spec PB washers..

I don't know the spec on the Hawkbill washers, but you should be able to find the right one at USA Knifemaker. Usually .005" .010" & .015" covers the thickness possibilities you'd need to choose from. Once you measure or look up the thickness, hole size and diameter you'll probably be able to find what you need here..
