Jo, you’re getting strong! I’m bending 3/32 Allen wrenches trying to get some DEK scales off. Haven’t had this much trouble removing scales before.

What’s the call here? Some hair dryer heat to soften the blue loctite first? And start on the right hand side, correct?

Some have used the soldering pens with luck (directing the heat to that specific area as opposed to waiting for the whole knife to heat up with a hair dryer).

I've been down this rabbit hole a few times and it's no fun... Also consider replacing the standard hex screws with Ti torx screws (if you haven't already). They're nice in that it's much more difficult to strip in trying situations like this.

Thx…funny you mention that. Was just digging thru boxes trying to find my soldering pen the movers have successfully hidden from me after multiple moves. Argh
