Glad I got the tuxedo when I did as its out of stock now. I still haven't seen anyone post a pic of that one. Maybe I got the only one! This would be a rare one meaning it will be right up there with a custom....Now I'm just talking smack. I'll go back to my corner now.
I didn't want to mess around I used a dab of JB Weld. This is good right?
I do see its in stock. I could have sworn when I looked awhile ago it showed out of stock. Must have looked at it wrong.Wish I could swing a tuxedo version. I see one on blade hq still. To close to Christmas.

Turned it into a Sparrember
What you're saying is stop flipping it and start using it. I gotcha. I did use mine today to cut a bunch of caulk off trim so it would tear the drywall.Stop flipping it so much guys

I only noticed the pivot because the blade was slightly off center. Took it apart to clean and oil before applying blue loctite. Ordered a set of skiffs as I had other bearings in cart, going to make a small detent ball ramp when I put skiffs in. Love this knife!

I guess I got a head of the game by pulling mine apart immediately lol. I’d applied blue to the screws when I put it back together. No loosey goosey pivot for me lol.

I’ve been carrying, flipping, and using my sparrow everyday since it showed up and haven’t noticed the pivot backing out but went to check it today and did notice all the body screws are T10 which is nice.
It might have loosened a touch as there was a tiny bit of side to side but the blade was still centered. Snugged it a tad but haven't added any threadlocker yet, gonna see how it goes.
I did loosen the tension on the clip a little as it was tighter than I like going in the pocket but all good now. So far overall it’s a great EDC and the blade came very sharp! I also love the stonewash finishes since its a user.

I only had up to a T10 from work handy at that time and just assumed due to a loose fitting bit but after checking again with my Wiha T10 it fits tight in all the screws. (Edited my previous post). Amazing how much more precise Wiha bits are!
