I believe these knives typically have steel pins so that is what I would opt for. With repairs like this I use carbon steel nails and turn them down to size on a belt grinder if needed for the proper fit.

use steel for durability.

The pivot pin needs to be a tight fit in the blade hole. Both pins should be steel.
