Doesn't seem to be pressed in, anyone know how they are installed or removed? Screwed in?

Josh I thought you expert at this ? Lol
It's screwed on, probably loctite happy
Torch n ice water it a couple times should break the bond
 
Btw, I wasn't able to get the studs off the ZT blade... Didn't have a torch handy at work so I just sent it to you... Now I'm worried lol

Dont' be haha, I am quite familiar with ZT's, hinderers, striders, benchmade, etc. just haven't done a regrind on a DPX yet so figured I'd ask. I got it off without any damage/problems though, was pressed together. Haven't seen one exactly like that before!
