Benchmade uses T6 screws on the scales, including the ones for the blade stop. I was trying to swap out those T6 screws for T8 screws. All went well until one blade stop screw would not budge. So I obtained a appropriately sized back out to remove it. Well that didn’t work either. The T6 screw was so tight that the head sheared off.
Now I am going to call Benchmade Customer Service and ask for another blade stop since part of that screw is still in it and won’t come out.
My suggestion to Benchmade is to stop using T6 screws and quit fastening them so tight.
