I bought a 31 and would like a blue stop pin. CR's website doesn't have one. Are there any aftermarket options?
 
I don’t think you can get an anodized stop pin for any CRK knives as the stop pin or stop pin sleeve is steel and the stand-off and lanyard pin are Titanium. Titanium can be anodized, but steel cannot.

let us know if you find that I am wrong.
 
You could always try heat bluing one but you probably won’t be able to achieve an exact match to the thumbstud/spacer if that’s what you’re after.
 
They changed the stop pin to hardened steel. It's not like the old ones. Unless you want to paint it there's no making it blue.

I'm guessing you can't heat blue the hardened stainless stop pin without ruining it's hardness properties?

Ah! I wasn’t aware they had changed them.
 
Thanks for the replies. I do like it as is but thought it was worth asking. Maybe CRK will offer blue as an option later on.
