Certainly not me. I suppose I might consider slotted brass anywhere
particularly visible on antique furniture.


Can you not get Pozidrive brass?

You can, and I might use them for somewhere visible on modern hardwood
(eg keyhole escutcheon), but they don't look right on anything antique
(IMHO).


Because they don't look old?
