Who’s Disassembled a Western 062 Knife?

Is there anything I need to be aware of when disassembling this knife? Are there bushing in the pivot pin for the blade? Anything out of the ordinary?
Thanks.
Jeff

Is that the folding hunter?

Yes it is.

I have restored/customized 3 or 4 of them and have 3 of them waiting for their turn on the bench. I don't recall any bushing for the pivot. I do believe there are at least 2 variations of the Western folding hunter. I'm not sure if are both the same model number.
I haven't done one in a few years but I don't remember any issues unique to that model.

I actually enjoy working on them.

Thanks Dale.
I purchased one awhile ago that Ill probably keep for myself. I’ll hopefully get to it this week, I just gotta check if I have some bone slabs large enough to use for it.
