That is the sum total of my experience with them so far, the other dealer took them on to replace the Baldwin dealership they lost so I will be seeing more, plus our mobile population means I will inevitably run across one. Are the knuckles being discussed buckskin, ecsaine or something else? Is the hardening problem the material, the "curing" process (if buckskin) or installion, ergo too much glue, etc.?
