Emerson lock slip fix!......?

[Lapedog]

Does anyone know the diameter of Emerson stop pins? Are they standard or is a Super's bigger than say a Mini's?

The reason I ask is I am wondering if I can remedy the lockslip by putting o-rings on the stop pin. Sort of like a reverse Umnumzaan thing. Then I'll have a stealth Super Roadhouse.

Did you try alcohol on the blade tang and lock face? I don't think an o ring will work. Maybe shrink wrap.

They are .187" thick, universally from what I've seen. They slip because the lock face angle is a little too steep imho (on the blade tang).

I tried it and it works for stopping the lock slip. However they get in the way when closing the blade so you have to give the blade a little extra push when you shut it. I'll have to check if it is preventing the detent from working.
