Almost sounds like you have fallen into the Over Lube trap. Just one drop of lube on the pivot is all that is needed. Any extra runs down between the scales and liners. Wet lube will attract pocket lint etc. Dry lube works well. Compressed air, keyboard air works well for blowing out or just pucker up and blow.
Taking apart a spyderco doesn't void the warranty. Damage from disassembly voids it. So take the thing apart, it's not that hard. Clean it with rubbing alcohol and lube SPARINGLY! Reassemble and enjoy.
As for the ultramar... Take it apart too. Lol
You are correct about the Spyderco! I misinterpreted their warranty/repair. So.... I will be taking it apart
As for the Ultramar... Reate says no to user disassembly.
Good deal! Love my spydercos, even pimping my para 3 with blue ti hardware. Just be careful and use common sense!
Where did you get the blue hardware? I think if I can find it it would match my bead.
