I was wondering if anyone else likes having the option of tip up or down but would like to fill the extra holes with some screws to improve the swiss cheese looks? With the right screws you could at least fill those in and I might even take the dremel to them so they were flush with the handle.

Does spyderco sell extras or if not what is the size so I could order some from a screw supplier?
 
I have seen it done. I believe you can buy the screws from the SFO, or STR knows what size they are. You will have to shorten the screws for the pivot end, otherwise they will protrude through the liner and rub on the blade tang, possibly hard enough to lock the blade.
 
to fit in the holes same color as the handles.

Like the ones they make for the screws in putting together your office furniture.

Little push in studs for appearance sake.

A new INVENTION free for Spyderco from their friends at BLADEFORUMS.com! :eek:
 
I like the idea of filler screws, if only because I can.

I can't think of any functional use other than keeping the holes clean in case you want to move the clip around, but it does look good.
 
Get some cup point set screws. It's like a screw without a head. The top of the screw will be an allen hole which is inside the diameter of the threads. You just have to find them small enough and then put a dab of loc-tite on them to keep em put.
