If Spyderco didn't have to "rivet" all of their knives together I would probably buy some of them. I like to take my folders apart and clean them once and a while. That's why I bought a BM. Does this bother anyone else about Spyderco?

Not all of their knives are riveted or pinned together. I used to own a first model Military (ruff ruff) that I had to take apart regularly to keep it working.

In the stainless models that I own, I find gun scrubber or, even better, brake parts cleaner works wonders for flushing them out.
 
Whoa Joel! Watch out for that Gun Scrubber! They work fine as long as its not used on plastic/ nylon spacers/ bushings. Gun Scrubber can literally MELT some of them away. Otherwise its great for flushing out.

Brake and electrical parts cleaner dissolves some plastics too. Alcohol is the safest thing.

Sure they make rivetted knives, but there's plenty of take-aparts too
