Byrd Knives

[Vivi]

Cliff Stamp reported in his review of the SS meadowlark that the handle liners beacame loose when chopping some branches. I'm afraid that my 'lark has done the same thing, except I haven't chopped anything with it. OTB it had nill blade play, but now it has created some side to side play to it, and slight up/down play. Is there any way I could remedy this and could I maybe make my own screw-down pivot like the G-10 model has for example?

Any help is appreciated

Try wrapping the knife in a layer or two of cloth, then tapping on the pivot with a hammer. Do it lightly, it's much easier to tap more to tighten it up than it is to try and loosen up an over-tightened screwless knife. I found this out on a Buck 110.
