Ill deblade another 112 and get a different steel. Easy to do.

That was my first thought too. I have a S30V blade from an LT 112 that I could have used, but I thought I remembered reading that they weren’t compatible. I’m sure going to be kicking myself if it turns out to be a simple swap!
 
I'll be keeping an eye out for a special run of the 112LT. I took the blade out of a red SK Blades run 110 and it fit perfectly. The slim blade may not work.

I just checked and I guess I actually have a Slim Pro 112. I was thinking it was the 112 LT with s30v. That kind of changes things, lol. Not sure I would have been able to stomach pulling that one apart. Too bad there's not a 112 Smoke Jumper.

As the 'First' aluminum frame take apart these should hold there value well..If Buck really gets behind the concept by giving us super steel blade options (please a drop point) along with handle options including nice wood we will see a huge demand for this AND more models like it..Just offer it in the Custom shop subject to available! I would love to play dress up with a take apart!
 
Got mine in! Beautiful piece. Closing seemed very weak though.

Couple drops of oil and it is already much better.

Pivot may just be a tad tight. Lockup is rock solid. I’ll give it some use and time before I muck around. It’s a good day:D
 
Thank you T tiguy7 ! But I don’t think I have to even mess with it. It’s only been a few hours, but the oil has seemed to work its way around, and it is snapping closed now. It probably helps that I keep opening and closing it. I can’t stop. I am blown away by it.

The blade is probably rubbing on Cerakote which isn’t the smoothest or slipperiest surface.
