Re: WHAT TO DO WITH A SWING GUARD

Thanks Kaleb. How would you bend the lock bar. Would you disassemble the knife again. Second I believe the lock bar did have a pretty big hole. Could this be the cause of this. Thanks

Re: WHAT TO DO WITH A SWING GUARD

I will try to get a pic. I reassembled the knife. The bottom lever part of the knife stuck down a little to far. I did notice the hole was a little bigger than 3/32 like the rest of the knife. This was the only hole that was larger. It looked to me like the pivot hole in the front bolster needed to ...
