Tactical screws

[Edgewise]

How can I go about getting those tiny screwdrivers for clip screws and other screws on a tactical folder? The screws look like little stars.
What are they called? Do they come in different sizes?
What about knives made to be dismantled for cleaning? Do the knife companies also supply the screws?
Should screws with glue be removed?

Thanks for all the helpful info. AAPK is so famous for.

possibly torx. from very small to very large. some may have a thread adhesive(loctite). a little heat is sometimes required to remove(careful around handles). very important to use the correct size.

Edgewise, you can buy one of these Benchmade Blue Boxes from one of the many web based knife stores, look under knife accesories catagories. This tool fits most every size screws on tactical knives. Price runs from $8 to $12.

Hi All,
The Benchmade box kit is great if you own Benchmades and may fit some other tacticals. They fit the clip screws on a few Spydercos, but not all. I remove the clip on the small Benchmades that I edc. Also fine for adjusting blade tension. Very handy accessory.
