Anyone know where I can get a spring for one of these?

May be my next project.

The words vintage and antique are vague. Actually most words are vague. Even the word vague is vague.

I would imagine either Muskrat Man or Bill DeShivs could help you out. Probably others, too. Hope this helps.

I don't sell springs without installation.
Hint- you can make a great replacement for the Schrade bronze spring from Sil-Phos brand hard solder. Any air conditioning shop will give you a scrap piece.
Looks like you need handles, too!

I think I saw switchblade springs in one of the stores.... one of the back pages for Schrade knives. Might be right or might be for bigger ones... a wild shot.

Thanks Mike but I have more work than I can handle without doing switchblades.
I am happy to let Kaleb and Bill do all the automatics. ::nod::
