In short, the plastic round thingy that holds the spring went out. Now it can be pushed freely at any direction… should I glue it in?
I rather liked stud lock… quite disappoited now
 
I didn't like the stud lock before, and I certainly don't like it now. I hope it gets refined, as it is a good concept.
 
I am not surprised. I looked at one of those knives at a local shop and I thought to myself 'that wont last long'.

I would send it back and ask for a refund not a replacement.
 
Refund? Nooo im not that angry. That pseudo-Bump is nice, I just want to know how can it be repaired. Sure, I'll contact Kershaw but sending the knife there and back across the pond would be real asspain.
 
Lenny, sorry to hear about your Stud Lock issue, please send it in and we can take care of it right away for you.

FYI Bungwrench, your perception of the Stud Lock is way off base. Do you think we would continue to produce a lock that continually had warranty issues?
The Stud Lock is very difficult to produce, and has been tested throughly. There has been very positive feedback from the end line user with this lock, a quick search should hopefully satisfy your doubt.

Let's please not try and put a label on a lock based on an isolated issue, otherwise there wouldn't be a lock on the planet we could all talk postively about.
 
Hi Thomas! How exactly that plastic piece is fastened normally? I'll try to send the knife but insured package will cost like new knife and even more. UPS charges $50 min
 
I'm not bashing the stud lock or Kershaw here, but my speed bump has exactly the same problem. That plastic insert gizmo can be pushed to either side fairly easy. It doesn't appear to have any adhesive on it, so I guess it's just a friction fit?

Other than this issue, the lock seems very solid.
