Looking for LARGE folder hardware.

[WilliamWoods]

OK so I'm working on a new folder design and I need standoffs and stop pins that will accommodate a .227" blade with room for a GTC bearing system. I was getting my stuff from CKK Industries but they have discontinued my old .29" tri-ring standoffs and the next largest is their spool design (not a fan).

So I need stainless/titanium .25" hardware!

Any tips where I can find the hardware I need? Or do I need to make these custom now?


Thanks!

Check out Alpha Knife Supply and Usaknifemaker. I just bought all the hardware you described and everything looks great.

Ya I love Alpha Knife Supply's .25" pivots I use them for all my large projects. Usaknifemaker is great too but my problem is the largest shouldered stop pin they sell is:

The overall length is .3".
The diameter on the thick part of the barrel is .156"
The length of the shoulders is .043"
The length of the thick part is .215/.216"

I guess I can start using straight shoulder-less stop pins but i would rather not since I use all Ti construction and can't hide the pins behind a scale.

If you need enough of them Alhpa can have them made for you. I know you could make them but they got a great hardware guy.

I understand... I'll let you know if I see anything like that.
