Does anyone know what size the bearings are? I am debating upgrading to skiff bearings.

If you google skiff bearing chart you will arrive at chart on skiff site.

They just added that recently to the site, it was originally put together by someone on Reddit, I don't do Reddit but found it through google.

That's the Metis not the Pallas

I know that but that was the only entry for Spartan Knives.

Did you look at taco bearings?

Did you look at taco bearings?

Same deal. Only the Spartan Metis is listed.

You might just have to try it out. I am not trying to be snarky, but practically speaking, they don't just use random sizes.

It's almost always one of a couple ((3/16" or 5MM) / 1/16"). Even those sizes are sometimes interchangeable, depending on the knife.

Better yet, pull out your existing bearings and measure, which will give you better idea.

Good luck!

I have had good luck contacting the knife makers directly for specifics.

Also curious if you ever found out the bearing size. Just got my Pallas and love it already. If no reply soon, I will pull out my calipers, take some measurements, and check back in. Also have some common bearing sizes laying around I can attempt to install.
