Hey guys, I haven't posted over here for a while. Ive had my BK9 for a few years now and have given it some kabar micarta and a kydex sheath from azwelke. I noticed the other day that although I realized the screws were rusting a bit, its now staining my scales, not a huge deal for me as its a user but mildly annoying. I figured Ill start my search for stainless hardware, things just aren't as available in Canada as it is for you guys down there, especially this sh*t hole Quebec. So anyways I found the exact hardware as the stock ones but stainless but unfortunately they only come in bags of 100! Its 30$ for the 100 screws and 100 nuts which obviously I can afford but I cant swallow paying 1/3 the cost of my knife for the 3 screws I need. So any kindly Beckerheads wanna sell me 3 screws and 3 nuts for a fair price??? :D:):o

What is the length, thread pitch, diameter, head shape, and fastener fitment that you require? Not too familiar with Becker stuff. For example: 1/2"X#8X32TPI hex recess socket head.
 
goggle fastenel theres one in about every town cost me 1.56 for three set the ones for the bk11 14 they gave me for free lol!
 
Tried hardware stores, everything is slightly off. Too long, too short, flared head. Fastenal is where I found them in bags of 100 for 30$.
 
We've dealt with Fastener Express in the past with good success. They tend to sell in large quantities as well but have really good prices. Are these what you're looking for? Not sure what type of nut you need, but I'd be surprised if they don't have it. I also did a quick search and found these, seems they sell individual pieces (never dealt with them before).


Unfortunately Mcmaster won't ship to Canada. Apparently they'll refuse the sale even if they think it might be exported to Canada (eg. if you had it sent to a parcel depot just across the US border).

Good luck, I know how hard the fastener search can be ;)

Target acquired. Found a random privately owned place that sells individual pieces. Thanks for the links guys.
