Where did you get those frag scales?

I picked one up for $80 cdn

Im a big fan of the DLT Exclusive FDE cerakoted

With fitment I had the opposite problem everything was too tight but I managed to get it all into place. Lock Bar tension was way too high and I did have to adjust it. Even though I was able to get it all working properly and I am generally happy with the results I definitely wouldn't recommend it.

Where did you get the scales

This would have been my choice had it not been for the plastic material of the nub used for this lock. I hope a future iteration uses a more premium material for such an important part.

common sense should tell us we must buy the correct scales to begin with, we cant buy the wrong product and blame the maker or the knife. If you buy the correct scales (lightweight) or put the OEM ones back on you would see you dont have this issue. HAS NOTHING to do with the tolerances or milling, its simply not the correct afterrmarket scales.

This was truly fantastic! Great video, great quality, great tips and a great time! Just subbed, the world needs more content creators like you! It’s very clear you go above and beyond! Thanks for sharing.

Excellent video, and informative… the best one of a disassembly if a PM 2, I have seen on RUclips… How do you know what screw goes where?…. Do you need Loctite?

another moron who didnt even use the finger ring

Thanks for the warning and explanation!

Let me just leave this comment in case anyone was about to the make the mistake I made. THE CRUWEAR VERSION OF THIS KNIFE IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH MOST AFTERMARKET SCALES. I fucked up and bout some flytanium scales and hardware for my pm2 crucarta. The hardware works fine but the scales do NOT fit the full liner of the crucarta pm2.

Than you for this video.

Knowing spyderco that probabaly came from factory like that lol

😢

Now the question is which one is better, this or the Axis lock? I prefer Spyderco 90% of the time but have had many Benchmades including my very first pocket knife at 12 years old a Benchmade Panther.

Good video but you are WAY too serious about getting everything perfect lol its a knife buddy not a panel on the space shuttle itll be fine 😂

If you want to use a thread lock compound try the low strength stuff. Loctite brand is pink.

Jeweler’s loupe is the way to go. Also helps with an even & consistent scratch pattern

Where did you get those scales

Great vid. Those scales are 💯

Looks terrible

What kind of spyderco is that?

You’re comparing apples and oranges on the price question. Makes no sense.

What setting is your soldering iron on?

And this is why the bolts or the shaft of the ball cage with fail before the ball, back spacer or blade. One of if not the strongest folding lock there is and so smooth. And no “lock stick” I love pm2s and 3s. And they’re awesome when they’re glassy. But any little stick or “pop” feeling in the lock I can’t stand. Same with frame and liner locks. If it clicks sticks or pops it drives me nuts. Manix 2 is just glass.

In a sense this is like the Demko Shark Lock.

TYVM! I've been searching for this exact content !!👍🏿🤌🏿

What angle did you use?

How about you just bend the lock bar..

I laughed with you not at you when you mentioned OCD. I'm the same way...don't sweat it. Great tips. Thanks for sharing. Love my PM2. Looking hard at the M2 now.

Very nice! Your rmr the angle ?

May I ask what steel it has as a blade on the Kapara that you have shared with us kindly please

I really appreciate your little tips along the way. The how toes of what the little intricacies' of the things that I might know TO do... but not really why Lol. Thanks for the great channel. I wish I'd found you sooner! I'm an engineer and I love the way you work things. Thx again, ~IYKYK

Luck enough to have one as getting scarce

A rubber band works quite well rather than the tape.

Way better than the shitty omega springs that are 100% guaranteed to snap after about a thousand openings. Literally made out of paper clip steel.

The Kapara is "maybe" the best spyderco❤️

are this real g10 scales? I'm planning to get buck 112 sport trx, its handle is fully g10 and everyone saying g10 are nearly indestructible...

I did a full replacement on my Manix 2 before I saw your video. I upgraded the ball and ball cage using your instructions and it was flawless! I really appreciate you making the video. Thanks

Hey! Great post. What sharpener are you using?

Axis/Crossbar lock seems stronger

You don’t put regular scales on a lightweight. Seems a little disingenuous.

One of the things that I love about the manix, is that looks like disassembling it doesn't untune it, unlike all my linerlocks which are a total pain in the butt to center BTW thanks for that "tape" trick, it helped me greatly !

I did a big sharpening of my knives and never once felt a burr. Now I know how to know it is there. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

Good advice!!!

I love Spyderco ❤

where did those scales come from?

If that’s your only knife that’s a issue lol

Id probably just shim the lockbar at the rear if i was stuck with the scales
