Please PM me if interested. Unfortunately I am not looking for any trades. Prices include shipping within the 48 contiguous US states. Prefer Venmo or Apple Pay cash because PayPal can be a nightmare but I can do PPFF if needed.
  • Primary owner
  • Never used, carried, or cut with
  • Original packaging
  • Replaced thumb studs with Ti after-market ones. Much more comfortable imo
  • S45VN blade steel with Ti and black micarta handles
  • Sells new for $650 without new thumb studs
 
How were you able to remove the stock thumb stud?
I looked up a video of it on youtube. Basically I removed the blade fror the knife, covered everything in tape to protect, used a dremel to cut away most of the thumb stud, then pushed it out with a vice and a hex bit (using a leather patch in addition to that tape to prevent damage to the blade). The new studs I have in there are connected with a threaded rod through the left over hole in the blade with some small rubber O rings around the threaded shaft in the hole to keep everything centered and prevent damage to the blade (if that makes sense). It came out just the way I wanted. But then I got my hands on an inkosi and did the same thing to that so I'm keeping the Inkosi and selling the Sebenza.
