While I don't know for sure, my guess is that the steerer is not butted. It doesn't seem like Rivendell would do that on an all-purpose frame like the Bleriot....maybe on the Roadeo, which is a more lightweight/racier design, but even there I'm not sure they'd deem it practical. You just want to avoid having the wedge overlap the bottom of the steerer threads AFAIK.
