I don't know of a specialized tool for the pivot, but I found that two small nails, with tips ground flat, would fit in the holes and then I simply put a rod between the nails and this allows me to tighten or untighten the pivot. The MUDD will make a great go-to folder!!

Quick and easy: Reverse snap ring pliers.

Something like this would work if you ground the fine points off.

Take a look here. You can get less expensive than Craftsman but being able to reverse the points keeps you from having to grind them off is worth an extra buck or two.

What's the distance across the pivot, hole to hole? Minispan makes some small, affordable spanner blades, but the largest I can find is 10mm. I'm thinking the pivot holes are like 20mm across.

I would think there is a serious market for a good adjustable spanner tool in the knife world. Kershaw's affiliation with Snap-on could come in useful with regard to getting something like this to market..... Include the right sets of bits with this thing to cover a broad spectrum and you have found a quick and easy way to cross over into new marketing territory.:thumbup:
