I have a Camillus demo knife with a bad spring. I have to 'help' the main blade close. I saw an old post by a Tom Williams who offered to repair a knife, then a second post saying he'd passed.
Is there anyone who can refer me to a repair source? I've had this knife since RVN and still use it, but I'd like to put it back in full working condition. Thanks.
 
I repair knives, but before we get into that- have you cleaned the knife out? Sometimes dirt can cause slow opening/closing.
Also, oil it (of course.)

I cleaned and oiled it, and the blade snaps back a little better. I'll live with it this way, until it doesn't, then I'll come running, Bill. Glad to know there is someone out there who can do repairs. Thanks for the reply.
