Folding knife repair ??

[Don Adelfson]

I have looked at all the forums and cannot find one that would seem to be a fit for this question...if this is not the right one, please let me know.

I have an old, but almost mint, Bowen green bone lockback. It is about 4" closed with a 3" blade. The blade is loose. Could someone tell me how to repair it? Or, fix it for me?

sure..first..is it loose left to right..
parralel to the knife body...
or just totally wobbly

if its loose left to right..fairly simple repair..but will never be
reliable for everyday use without totally replacing the piviot

if loose parallel to the body..moves foreward & backwards..
agian..piviot replacement required

totally wobbly...piviot repair

if you really want to restore it..post so and ill list a
very competent folder repairman..
