I need some help with a Spyderco Southard

jderry93 · Mar 7, 2015

Hi,
I recently received a used and abused Spyderco Brad Southard flipper in a trade.

The action was gritty and slow so I took it apart to clean it out.
I noticed that the bearings were not free in the titanium like my ZTs.
They almost seemed pressed in.

Also what shape should the washers be?

Thanks!

I haven't received any thing yet, but thank you!

I sent it to jd*****@yahoo.com.

Anyhow, I basically said that the bearings are encased in a housing that fits into the scale. You should be able to pop the bearing housing out to clean and oil the bearings. Just make sure that you pay attention to how they came out so that you can get them back in the exact same way.

The link below has pictures of the parts of the Southard.
