they don't... don't let it deter you from buying their boards tho because they are sick, and you are supporting a non sellout company that makes their gear in the usa

having a board without the full metal wrap is a good thing thats why they make um like that, there hand made, other companies such as ride usually have the full metal wrapped edge, because they are machine made, which is deff a minus. all mervin boards do not have the metal edge on the nose and tail
