I'm trying to take some screws out of my Kershaw Zero Tolerance 0350, but they just won't budge. I know that Kershaw put locktite on the screws so what do I have to do to break the locktite seal? By the way, I have managed to get two of the handle screws out of it (I can't get the center one out) and the other one giving me trouble is the pivot screw. What do I have to do the break that locktite's grasp?
 
just use a steady pressure when trying to turn the screw, the locktite will break eventually even if it feels like the screw isnt turning right away
 
Put a really hot solder on top of the "female" part of the screw. I usually put the screw on top of a lit candle until it's black from the soot, and I'll be able to break the loctite seal.
 
Thanks guys! I managed to get the all but the center one out still. I seem to have actually stripped the teeth or threads in the head of that one so now the tool will not grab it to turn it... looks like my 0350 will be taking a trip to Kershaw...
