Pivot screw tool

[brand0n]

I did a search on the forum, but couldn't find an answer. What tool is need to tighten/loosen the pivot screw on a boker blitz? sorry for the noobie question

don't know if anyone makes a specific tool for the pivot design, but i use a pair of angled snap ring pliers. i prefer the angled ones, but the regular work as well.

keep in mind if you are heavy handed or have poor coordination you can scratch the pivot up, but i have a steady hand and have never had an issue. ymmv, but i use them to tighten my escrima folder and afd knives.

Yep, that's what I use on mine too. They also come in handy for popping the locking rings off Opinel folders. You can get a pair with interchangeable angled and straight pins on ebay for like $6 shipped.
