fumble

[a deadly fart]

So I took apart my Flash 2 and didn't notice from where this small metal ball rolled out of. The knife seems to work fine without it but I figure it has its place. Anybody know where it is suppose to go? Thanks.

Have you noticed less resistance in opening it without that ball? I know some assisted openers (especially ones without blade locks) have ball bearings holding the blade in the closed position, to prevent accidental opening.

It fits on top of a small spring (tiny hole) that keeps your blade lock from moving freely within the handles.

Did you notice the small indent hole in the lock bar ? It works similar to a liner lock indent ball for the blade.

Your lock could possibly become engaged without it.

Your lucky you saw the ball bearing when it fell out........it is so small it fit under my finger nail.
