I have seen many posts of people who said they were going to get a one-armed-bandit for their 560. However, I have not heard anything back from anyone telling us if it works very well.

So, I'm asking.......
Anyone have a 560 with the bandit? Does it work very well?

Thanks,
Mike
 
I have one on mine. It works, but not as easily as on my 110FG. The blade opening is no where near as smooth.

I have a 560 with a Bandit and it works fine. However, I usually don't need to open it with just one hand and it does add extra bulk (feel) to the knife.

I had to try a few different positions on the blade before I was satisfied with how it worked. The size of your hands can make a big difference in how easy you can open it.

Make sure you get the one for 1/8" blade thickness.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the information. I think I will pass on getting a bandit. I don't mind opening it with two hands.

I have one on my 110 and I love it. You can't go wrong for 5 bucks. If it doesn't work for you, take it off.
