OK, maybe just too much week-end or perhaps old-timers....

I am re-knuckle-ing a set of grand shanks. The new parts are of Able manufacture and have a pencil line on each. 

Does this line face the flange or the hammer?

I know the line indicates the direction of the nap of the leather, but which way is preferable.
