I bought a torx set for my pocket clip and decided to check the other torx screws on my delica. Several of the screws were loose, so I tightened everything up, except the pivot. I didn't touch the pivot. Now the knife is real tight to open. Are the screws supposed to be a little loose? Or do I tighten everything and the opening and closing will loosen up on its own?
Thanks in advance
 
Sometimes those screws near the pivot have a great effect on the pivot tightness. There's always a happy medium between tight and too tight. Keep playing around a bit with it and I'm sure you'll find the sweet spot.
