Stupid Mini Grip question

[pedropcola]

Hey all. I just bought a mini grip with cuscadi scales. I also just traded for a mini Ritter grip (558). My plan is to swap the Ritter blade into the cuscadi scales. I have always assumed that all the mini grip blades would fit into any mini grip scale but it was always theoretical before and now I actually am planning on doing it. So am I correct in this? Also, I have taken blades out of axis locks before but I have never taken them down all the way to scales and liners. Any links or tips before I embarrass myself?

The only thing I wish was that I had traded for a spydie hole mini grip because I think that would be a great combo. Of course, the Ritter is a pretty good one too. If it turns out well I might switch out my M2HS Ritter mini grip blade. We shall see and I will post pictures.

The Ritter blade will fit in the Cuscadi scales and a I don't have the link, but there is a YouTube video showing the blade swap that was helpful to me.

Nice choice!

I believe it is easier to just remove the pivot screw and stem and then slide out the blade itself with the washers. Don't try and take the whole thing apart.

Thanks. Anyone ever buy scales directly from Cuscadi? I went to their website and the combination of English, German, and euros threw me.

Send Luke at Cuscadi an email. He usually replies within minutes and his English is perfect.
