Looking to increase the detent strength on my Kershaw JYD 2

Hi,

I just recently got my Kershaw Guy limited edition JYD 2 in CPMD2.

I took the knife apart, polished the blade, liners and washers.

It is extremely smooth now.

But one issue I still have with the knife is that the detent seems weak when compared to other flippers.

What are my options to make it feel more robust?

Can I install a slightly larger ball?
Ceramic?

I have also heard about drilling out the detent hole some so that the ball goes deeper into it.


Any help or advice is much appreciated.
