I just received my Matt Diskin Fire and I intend to put it into the EDC rotation. I will eventually need to do a little minor maintenance (e.g. cleaning, lubricating, etc.) and will therefore need to remove or retighten the proprietary scale screws.

QUESTIONS:

1) Does anyone know where I can get the bit driver/head to that goes to the proprietary scale screws?
2) Is there an alternative way to tighten/loosen the screws (i.e. is there an easily available tool that would work)? I've purchased special bit heads for my Microtech Whalesharks proprietary screws and that cost me around $25. I really don't want to spend that much again on another screw bit.

Yes, I have googled it and came up with nothing.

Thanks.
 
UPDATE: I contacted Mr. Diskin via e-mail and he relpied with some very useful information. I decided to share some of this information as it may also be helpful to others in the future.

". . . the holes are .040" and spaced .060" center to center. The blade pivot is a t10 torx. If it needs to be taken apart it is prob best to send it in as it is very complex internally
Thanks Matt"

Hi, there. I contacted Mr. Diskin through Facebook.com. Just do a search for him on Facebook and he should pop right up. Let me know if you can't find him and I will point you in the right direction.
