I am trying to locate the manufacturer of these grips and levers. I have looked at the braided ones from every manufacturer I can find.

He's right about the grips, they are from CoolSAC. But the levers are from Iron Braid.

Try this site. I bought a pair of their alligator grips. Very nice and reasonable!

I wonder what CoolSAC lever covers look like installed. They sure are less expensive. 29.99 vs 119.00

He wrote, "in like Flint". Derek Flint (James Coburn) was a secret agent in 2 movies, back in the 60's. "Our man Flint" and "In like Flint". Could be that the movie title was a rip off of the "In Like Flynn" saying expained in wikapedia.

You know it must winter to be writing trivial crap like this-sorry couldn't help it.
