Does anyone know the # spanner size I need for Strider SMF? I found #10 at hardware store but was way too small, and I don't want a $65 one. They cost like $3 online if I know which size to order.
 
Someone on here posted a picture of one he made out of an old flat blade screw driver and his dremel grinder. Seemed to have worked for him.

Yes it is my email. There are spanner bit's for sale online for a few bucks but they just have sizes like 8, 10, 12,14, like torx bits. I can't seem to find any description of the measurement these sizes correspond to. I know a 10 is way too small because Carr hardware had some 10's. It needs to be 1cm across. I do have a pretty good array of tools, dremels grinders etc so I could make something but I thought I'd be able to get it cheap and easy.
 
I made mine out of a Park Tool chainring tool. It only took like 2 minutes with a dremel. I think it was like $5

If its the first time your taking the knife apart I would recommend heating the bull pivot up with either a soldering iron or boiling it. Striders have lock-tight on them.
