Thanks for the thoroughness, and the details. Sometimes it's the little details that will make it or break it. I did my Sokoke up with your direction to the "T", and it is so smooth and conditioned now, keep doing what you do brother! Peace!

[@jd4edc]

Thanks for the feedback. Knowing these type of videos help makes it worth while. Enjoy your Sokoke, it is a great model. 👍

Good video for showing how to take apart a sokoke
If you want a smooth knife
Go bowling

[@jamesadowney]

I don't think I've ever seen such a good maintenance/adjustment video. Cheers.

[@jd4edc]

Wow, thanks! 🙌

[@jefferys9593]

I strengthened the detent on my Sokoke the same way, it's perfect now, was a bit too light before. The scales I like the extra texture and grip for my sweaty hands. Just an awesome knife all around.

[@jd4edc]

💯

[@jefferys9593]

Good disassembly and micarta sanding walkthrough

[@jd4edc]

Thanks 🙏

[@falkbierwagen9119]

Very inspirational. Just did something similar to mine. Waiting for the Skiffs.

[@jd4edc]

🙌💙

The longer one goes on top . One is long , one is short . They started having the option of getting some longer screws for the titanium clips since one is long and one is short . So if og s don’t reach bottom one needs a long screw . The clips don’t sit right when they’re inset either but do on the top ones . Also , those two for $7 aluminum clips on Amazon work with the inset but need the under carriage of the clip thinned down with a Dremel wheel for better flex . It’s work but worth it in the end if a person likes tinkering with their knives . There’s ways to shade the aluminum

[@davidhelka8929]

Great video man this is a good knife I've used sandpaper for other things on my knives before but I've never thought to clean rough micarta good stuff

[@jd4edc]

Completely changed the feel and you can rough it back up with lower grit paper again too 👍

[@SimplicityEDC]

Loved the video! Do you reckon you can get this micarta completely black without showing a tint/shade of the original color? And if yes, what exact product do you recommend? Love the micarta handle on the praxis

[@jd4edc]

I haven’t tried myself, but I’ve seen all black burlap Micarta before so it is possible. 👍

[@satudave]

Lil mods and tweaks go a long way huh. Great work 👍👍

[@jd4edc]

They really do bro 👊

[@austenhatch3285]

It’s good to have a plastic pry tool to pop off those steel liners

[@jd4edc]

Good suggestion. Especially since I have some 😂

[@mikejurnak4253]

Great break down 👍🏻✌🏻

[@jd4edc]

Thanks bro 👊

[@Hungrybird474]

Have you bead blasted civivi micarta yet Jd ? I m doing a Riffle in the am after a make the tiniest arch with a Dremel wheel for acess . The only thing , one thing stopped me from buying this is the damn left clip cutout should not be there at all , sorry . Lefty I love you bro

[@jd4edc]

No I haven’t tried that yet. I’d be curious to see the result of doing that though.

[@stevenmiller3708]

What's up J.D. what did you mean by if you switch to skiffs you can't flip anything? I just learned abt them was considering purchasing a few sets any info you could give me on the topic will be appreciated greatly. Thanks fam great content

[@jd4edc]

The track that the bearings are wearing in are happening on the steel liners. That’s all I was saying. If you’ve been flipping a lot for a long time the track might not line up.

[@stevenmiller3708]

Gotcha thanks man

[@skyybluu3118]

Great video love the knife

[@jd4edc]

Thanks 🙏
