sorry, I kinda realised what you meant after i posted that
So I took it apart, becuase really its too much trouble to send it back to spyderco for me, and I figure why not learn, and I can lube and grease/tuff cloth the WHOLE thing inside and out - but I have a problem, I don't have a torx bit that is small enough for the body screws, it fits the pivot screw but not the body screw
- so becuase of this i can't get the blade back into the pivot point with the bronze bushings on 
, so taking it apart would be easier.
All hardware shops are shut so I can't get them, and the one I did visist probably had a small enough one, was in an electricians set, but I had to pay 35 bucks for all this other crap i didnt need, i only want the one bit, t28h or something it was called
so does anyone know the right size for the body screws? it would be much appreciated - i'll try supercheap auto and other car stores, but a size to look for would be good :thumbup:
here are some pics
Taken apart in a ziploc bag, so no losing of any part
inside I have 2 bronze bushings, a pivot screw thingy, a clip, a clip screw thingy, and a handle, with the backlock and screws inside
here you can see the body torx screw, and the pivot torx screw next to it, for a size comparison, looks to me like it is 1 size down?
just a comparison with the smallest torx bit i have, don't have any smaller
thanks for helping me
