I have a couple of flea market finds that are going to be a project to occupy some of my time during the summer when it is too hot to be playing outside.
My searches for information to help me have turned up nothing...I am trying to find some videos showing how to take apart and assemble a slipjoint knife. Actually I am more interested in the assembly, I am pretty sure I can get the knife apart (but would destroy the covers) but it is the putting it back together that I know is far more difficult! However, any help would be terrific!!
Can someone help me out please:)?
 
There is a book floating around out there. I saw one at a knife shop for around.$12.... Can't remember the name, but it dealt specifically with slip joints. I didn't buy it but plan to do so in the future.......Sorry if this wasn't much help but a net search should find it.
 
A search turned up "slipjoints my way", is that the one you were thinking of? If not, has anyone read it??
 
I looked it up. It is:
Knife Repair & Restoration by Adrian Harris

Shows to be out of print, but the place I went had several so I guess they are out there.
Hope this helps.
