My uncle gave me a switch blade and it isn't working so well. He wanted to see if I could fix it. It is held together with pins that are mushroomed over on the ends over a washer.

Does anyone know where I can get new pins to replace the old ones when I put it back together?

I don't know the size bacause I don't want to take it apart until I know where I can get the stuff to put it back together. The knife was made in New York and the pins are maybe about 1/16" diameter.


Thanks

Almost any good hobby shop carries brass and steel wire in a multitude of sizes.Look for one that carries RC model airplane supplies.Larger lumber yards also carry round stock.The knife supply catalogers carry it ,of course.
