Torx bits for knife dismantling

[upnorth]

What are the most commonly needed Torx bit sizes for dismantling your folders?

T6 and T10 for Benchmade.

Buy a couple of the Husky brand Torx drivers at Home Depot ($6-7 I think) and you'll be able to take apart just about any knife. http://www.huskytools.com/Product.aspx?pid=82fab520-8af7-4775-9dde-e3ce88178efe&cid=1051586

I second that, I just bought one yersday. It includes even the smallest Torx bits (which my BM 975 scales require). If I remember right, it was $5 at Home Depot. The only complaint I have is: it comes with 4 bits, but only three store in the handle, leaving one bit to be stored in the chuck..... an open invitation to lose that bit!!

The only one you'll be missing is the T5 for the older MT OTFs before they had the tri-pin screws.

You can fit all four bits in the handle if you remove the plastic holder. This can be done with needle nose pliers.

I third that. The husky torx set works great and I haven't broken one yet.

Definitely the Home Depot Torx. If you can't find them in your local HD, go on line and get them....get the nice small std and Phillips set while your there...
