Hey - anyone else tried swapping blades between Sebenzas? The 31's are so similar to each other it is an easy swap. The blades are basically interchangeable. Sometimes you need to swap around the washers, but not much else. If you are worried about perfect lockup, sometimes you need to exchange the back, but I haven't found that to be the case. The 31's seem so similar that you just remove the pivot pin, hold down the lock arm and slide out the blade. Just about the same as for the Chris Reeve prescribed cleaning procedure.

This procedure is below.

No need to take the whole thing apart. Usually takes just a few minutes. As Tim Reeve says in the video - Make sure to hold down the lock arm when you slide the blade in and out so that you don't mess up the washers.

So if you want that special blade and front/back combination - just buy some on here or wherever and swap parts.

Have a good one.my mod.jpg
 
I'm partial to the Carbon Fiber fronts since it drops the weight down to 3.6 oz for the large Sebenza 31 which is great when compared to the weight of the Ti Shirogurov 95T. IMG_4049.jpgIMG_4042.jpg
