- My Buck Spitfire was hard to open, check out this video to see how to clean up the action on your pocket knife and get it smooth as silk. I also upgraded the pocket clip on the Buck Spitfire Knife. Check it out.

The spitfire is one of those knives that every time I saw a picture or video of one,
I'd tell myself I need to get one, and then I'd forget about it. I think they are a nice lookin knife.
I like lock back knives.
I looked at this knife many times before picking one up, and now I’m glad I did. It really is a cool knife and did come really sharp. A few minutes cleaning up the action and it is as good as knives costing twice as much
Thanks for checking out the video
Very cool disassembly video. Have a wonderful morning.
Thanks, you too
I look for your videos multiple times a day 😂 This was a good one, I really liked seeing how the locking mechanism worked when you opened it up. Pretty interesting. Keep them coming
Thanks, I will
Great upload. Nice catch with the burrs and springing the clip.
Don't do this at home. John the professional knife abuser. 😊
Thank you for sharing another helpful informational video.
Thanks for sticking around and viewing my uploads!!!
That was interesting. That one missed the burr bench evidently. But nice knife, and your tune up worked out. Very cool.👍
I think the spring was 70% of the problem, the little bit of debris and the burr just added to it,
It’s smooth like butter now and thanks for viewing
Great job
Want one now
Excellent fix!
Nice finding those burrs and getting those out. Bending that spring to take some tension off made that knife a smooth one-handed opener like it was supposed to be. Good work. The blade hitting the back lock when closed, was the same problem I had with my Boker plus Nubilum. Except the blade tip was hitting the last barrel spacer and made a dent in the edge. Brand new and already a project. But I like projects and had to re-profile the edge since the curve wasn’t perfect in that area. Now it’s perfect and a great knife. Yours has a lot more edge touching. A bigger re-profile job. Weird how things like that get right passed quality control.
Gives us tinkerers something to tinker with though.
It sure does, hey, thanks for checking out my. Video
You should try Ballistol on your knives. It’ll make the action smooth as silk. I use it on all my firearms.
Not a fan of Ballistol at all, leaves gummy residue inside the knife and stinks horribly, my One angry kid oil is non toxic and much safer to use on your knives being made from all food grade ingredients.
If you need a goood gun oil I recommend G96 over Ballistol any day.
I use Ballistol on all my fishing reels and have done for years. I never found any stickiness or residue. User friendly and good value.
I just got an orange spitfire and it was stiff like yours. I took it apart and founds burrs just like yours. I filed them down and lubed it up. It works so much better! Thanks for making this video and showing how to fix the issue. 👍👊
Man I am glad it helped you out. That is why I do this
I kinda like the boker pretty good
It is a nice knife
Holy oil
@@Aa-ron22 lol
If your not gonna use that pocketclip anymore i could use it for my spitfire, and the little screws that hold it on, let me know ill buy them.
Oh, I broke it in half trying to mod it, check the video
@@JohnKlahr I really just need the screws
I used two to install the Benchmade clip on it, I recommend reaching out to Casey Lynch at Lynch Nw, they are great people and should have anything you need.
I don't like the nylone bushings They shoudd at least use Foster Bronze washers .
Do you think it would help?
That’s a lot of oil…lol
Yeah, I just wipe off the excess, just want to make sure everything is coated good inside. I’m in Florida and around the Saltwater a lot so used to being extra careful with my gear.
Hello John, I have just bought the same knife in black and the mini, arrived here today in the UK. Both are very stiff and struggle to open with one hand. I came on RUclips to see if I could find a fix and found your helpful video.
I'm reluctant to send them back but will attempt what you did in the video. This must be a fault in their production as I have two brand new knifes with the same stiff blade? Thanks for the great video from a new subscriber.
@@andyd7213 yes, it made a huge difference, especially the spring part, good luck with your new knives and thanks for joining us.

That turned out very well. Good video
Thanks man!
Great in depth video. That is a nice buck knife. Really like the name of the knife oil. "One Angry Kid"
Thanks for checking out the video
