I have a nice folding top game table that came from Grandmothers house.  The top is about 36" square when open, 18"x36" closed.  It pivots to align with the base when closed, and is supported by the base when open. 

It uses some sort of knife hinges on the ends of the leaves.  Unfortunately, they are missing, so I don't really know what they look like.  I have tried Rockler and Woodworker Supply, with no success.  (included pictures of the hinge area.)

Does anyone have suggestions?

I don't see the pictures of the hinge area.  Where did you post them?

I thought I posted the picture yesterday---but I don't see it.  Try again.

I see your post was an old one, but i was wondering if you ever found those hinges, and if not, what did you do retro fit it?

I have the archives disc and could look it up. If it's in another magazine, it would be a lot harder for me to find. Could you tell me more what the jig might have looked like, or  the function of it?
