Military Ti vs Sebenza

[colubrid]

Has anyone taken their Ti Miliatary apart? How does it compare to the Sebenza? Bushings/Washers ect?

Would love to see pics and description of dissasembled Ti Millie.

I've had both my Ti Military and My Sebenza apart. The way I remember it, they both have a bronze washer on either side of the blade and a 2 piece screw set in the pivot. One carries tip up, the other tip down. The Mili pocket clip has 3 screws, and the Sebe clip has 1 but the clip sits in a groove so it does'nt rotate. The frame leaf spring on the Sebe is is not covered by the pocket clip, so theoretically it could be hyperextended. A hyperextended spring can be reset by diassembling the knife. The Sebe design lends itself to the pushpin lanyard setup. The lanyard hole is enlarged to fit the pushpin, and a shoelace is attached between the your belt and the ring bail on the pin. To release the knife, depress the button on the pushpin and pull it out.

I must be misunderstanding what you're saying, because both my large and small Sebenzas have the clip over the lockbar. One of the smalls came with a clip so strong that I had to replace it to make the knife practical to unlock.

But does the Spydie use the pivot system with the bushing, like the Sebbie?

No it does not.

Why didn't you just bend your clip out a little to take the tension off?
