oh wow, the nitrous stryker, you don't see them very often. The mini nitrous stryker was my first quality knife and it got me into the hobby.

[@DocP91B]

Issued that guy on a deployment in 2010.

Great info! Thank you!!

[@anthonygonzalez1147]

I've been trying to center my benchmade bugout, with the aluminum scales and m390. If you have center them, what was your process. Did you you open it half way as well and then tighten? I've held the lever down while loosening and tightening it, and it sometimes looks like it's centered but then goes back off centered.

[@michaelleduc9469]

Thank you this helps big time!!!

Hi doc

[@raverboi4203]

great information now I need the wrench kit 2 fix mine

[@DocP91B]

You don't have to get this specific one, but something like this will fix just about any knife you ever get your hands on www.amazon.com/Screwdriver-Precision-Magnetic-Electronics-Smartphone/dp/B0895FV9CH/ref=sr_1_11?dchild=1&keywords=elecontronis+screw+driver+set&qid=1610071391&sr=8-11

[@mattharvey968]

great info for a knife knoob like me!!

[@toddcarr.]

Would that trick also apply to all folding knives such as a lockback, deadbolt or even the gear lock? Thanks a bunch in advance and keep on making sharp things fun and informative. My bad the gear lock is just a liner lock.

[@DocP91B]

It applies to a whole lot of knives regardless of the locking system. It doesn't work on 100%, but most.

[@uncle_thulhu]

It absolutely does! Thankyou so much! Mine isn't a liner-lock, but it definitely has those same screws. One other thing, I know you don't like fixed-angle sharpeners, but I've heard you say there is a right way to use them. I was thinking that the right way was to just use the weight of the knife, rather than pressing it into the sharpening rods. Would that be correct?

[@DocP91B]

100% never push your blade into them. Just pull the blade through them, letting the edge rest in between the guides.

[@uncle_thulhu]

@@DocP91B excellent. Thanks muchly. You are my guru of all things sharp and shiny.

[@dustinwhitt5297]

Does the halfway open hold true for axis locks?

[@DocP91B]

If they have more than one frame screw yes. If it's just the pivot and then one screw down by they tail, not really.

[@Sugardaddy501]

If only fixing a bent fixed blade was so easy; straitening a bent tip on a kitchen knife takes awhile.

[@DocP91B]

Or a really big hammer.

[@knifeman1122]

Do you know how to fix that over extended liner lock tho? Do you see the blade stop pin on top,if you see it it's the shape of an octagon. Unscrew that just alittle and turn it. Back and forth as you look at the lock up once you see the liner lock go closer the the starting point when it just barely touches the blade steel than keep the blade open in lock position and than tighten that screw up and bam!! Your liner lock is back to how you get it when its new

[@DocP91B]

That's a great tip if they are using the Shane Seibert system. His stop pins are slightly different sizes on each of the hexagon sizes. But on this model of the model for example its equilateral all around so that trick doesn't work. I've tried that on the 912. What does work is carbidizing the lock face.

[@knifeman1122]

@@DocP91B yes the lock could been used so much that only thing to do is the carbonized it

[@DocP91B]

@@knifeman1122 yes with this particular knife. It has been not just used but abused. I did not take good care of it and it is over 10 years old. The poor condition of it is my fault.

[@knifeman1122]

@@DocP91B it happens especially when people are not educated on steels and pocket knives. I was the same way when I started. I have messed up so many knives through out the years. Now I use the tool for the job

This is the only way that actually works. The others people's vids are a bunch of horse manure!
