<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 1282696, member: 15199&quot;]Silver is a soft metal, and that is most of it.&nbsp; The rest is an assumption. I assume he keeps it in his pocket or coat as most do. Common dust and grit ( which is most decomposed silica/quartz ) adheres to hands, clothing, etc., and when ever the clip moves against the grit, some microscopic grinding will occur. If the pants are tight, the stronger the wear. But that does seem a little too much. What else might he have in his pocket, such as change, keys, pocketknife, etc. as they would contribute.</p><p><br /></p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
