Help - Removable X2 Thumbstuds?

[ThePeacent]

A fairly straight and easy question I'd like toa sk to the rep here, but I'll gladly hear and thank anybody else's answer. :thumbup:
Are the thumbstuds on the old X2 Voyagers removable?

I'm not talking about these ones, which obviously are (5 in, blade Voyager):

but these ones, which I have (unsuccessfully) tried to remove more than once, with vice grips/channelock/pliers/wrenches. They are from the 6 in, X2 Voyagers.

Thanks much!

I thought I heard they are pressed on.

Yeah thats what they look like to me too. I'd bet they are pressed on.
