AA Washers

I'm going to be taking my AA apart to send off the blade to be coated and the handles to be anodized so I figured, why not put in new better washers when I'm putting it back together. So I looked around on the internet and I believe the stock washers in the AA are just .015" thick plain steel, but there is some room for a little bit thicker washers. What washers would be the best to put in? Phosphorus bronze? Standard steel? .015" thick? .02" thick? Also, while I'm ordering them for my AA should I order some for my Kimura as well?
I also read on bladeforums that militec-1 doesn't work as well with PB as it does with the standard steel. Is this true?

Re: AA Washers

PB is the best way to go. And I'd stick to the stock thinkness personally.

And I'd leave the Kimura as is, they come with PB washers in them already

Re: AA Washers

I'd buy some of both thickness's and try em out for yourself. Im assuming the thicker the washers, the less play in the handles there will be. Its all personal preference.

Re: AA Washers

Thanks, I think I will probably just get both thicknesses.
