I mean as tensioned as you can make them without the handles binding up.

Oh, and yeah, there's definitely nothing new to the MB loctite-like stuff. I'm pretty sure some of the bolts with it on them are original 1985 bolts.

There is practically no handle play when unlocked. Absolutely none when the handles are locked.


Thanks, Jim, that's what I've been reading about this one. I haven't ordered one yet because I haven't handled one. Part of the reason is whether I'd get used to the handle curve. I have a couple of other balis with handles of similar shape and it's hard to get used to for me.

Thanks again for the patient answers.
