Is there a steel interframe attached to the aluminum handles for further rigidity?

From what I can tell Joseph, there is steel inside the aluminum handle for about 1/2 the length of the handle; from the blade toward the rear. It is part of the locking mechanism, but is attached to both sides of the handle as well. I've not used this knife much, so I can't speak to how well it holds an edge, but it looks and feels excellent. Nice size blade, very sharp, locks out solidly with no wiggle. I feel $75 is an absolute steal for this knife. I may order another one to actually use. I've not used the one I have, because it is so nice I didn't want to mess it up. If you are on the fence, I would definitely buy it.

I'm not aware of any attachment (never investigated). Don't think it would be very hard to manipulate some sort of attachment to make it work the way the handle/frames designed, but, I'm not sure. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

The handles are rigid. I suppose spaghetti could push through the holes, but it hasn't been a problem for me.

yes, except for the long wooden handle, where the wood starts is connected with screw. Both sides are welded on and seem to be very secure. Great wok!

No, however there are built in handles on the sides. I love this chair ever since I bought it! It is very spacious, secure and a cinch to put together and given the price I do not know how it could be beat.

I can only guess because I don't have that one. So I can tell you why I purchased this one over all the others is because of the Large Handles as I have Multiple Sclerosis and I believed this one would be the most sturdy after reading all the other comments at the time. Hope this helps you.

Absolutely the handles are attached with t-nuts and can easily be removed. It is thick plastic and can easily be cut or drilled.

They are steel, don't know about any aluminum inserts for thia application.

The finish on top and bottom rails are flush. In theory, you can pre-drill holes and use threaded bolts and nuts to connect one on top of the other, but that won't give you the lateral rigidity as a single unit.

Hello Fidel. My answer is NO. There are just 2 levels of rigidity: 1) NOT LOCKED (standard rigidity), 2) LOCKED (becomes a fixed fork). Level of rigidity is not continuously adjustable.

No. You can see on the inside four tiny marks from where steel pins were forged to the carafe to attach the handle on the outside. It is a smooth join with only minor indentations. I use this at least four times a week and am pleased with it.

I am not sure (I will try to post pictures showing the way the handle is attached), I can see two rivet-like fasteners; they do not show though, the surface both inside and outside are completely smooth.

Yes, with the handles outside of the ones each is nesting in. Check them when you get them, however, as the first set we got were broken - little chips and shards off the edges of 2 of them, rendering them unusable.

The units we purchased are spot welded. We have had no problems with either the handles or bracket attachments. We have used these units vigorously.
