A Pocketknife with Bearings!
Many modern pocketknives have blades supported by thrust bearings made of steel (or increasingly ceramics) held in place by a bearing cage. Although they might seem potentially susceptible to damage, bearing designs have proved to be remarkably tough and long lasting, provided proper care is taken.

    Really fun video and pretty spot on. I'm a stage 3 guy who found your channel to help me Mod some classic knives, but I'm starting to dabble in Stage 4. I need to start weening out my Stage 1 and 2 knives to make room for my current passions, although I only hope to pass them on to new enthusiasts just starting their journey, as most of them don't retain much resale value.

    Hey this question is entended for the maker of this video knife lube or whatever its called but if anyone else can answer it then id appreciate that just as much so i came up on a benchmade axis folding knife and i think may be a axis spring assisted cus when i start moving blade it ebds up coming out on its own even if i let it go which i think is cool but id much rather it be fully auto axis so can i convert it to auto?? And if so how and can someone make a video of it and i have 3 coil springs from reguler push button autos one is like double the size of the other 2 but can i use one of them and is that the type of spring they use in axis autos??

    I have a genuine question, probably highly ignorant but a question nonetheless. Is there a "top" or "bottom" to the ball bearing rings? Like is one side flat and the other side the bearings are protruding? I'm going to guess that the dimensions to them are even? I have a new Milwaukee Tonto blade, I believe it uses a bearing system (I think) It has a fairly fast action release. It has a protruding notch that you push down on with your finger to release the blade. I haven't used it much but it does seem like it could probably use some oil for preventative maintenance and a bit faster action.

      Give purple loctite a try. It’s definitely the way to go over blue loctite. The only downside is that it isn’t available in stick/paste form like blue.

    For the cracks you can always use a tool and a cloth. Anything slim and hard, you can even use a butter knife. Then you can use it to push the cloth inside the lines and use the tool to rub very hard.

  • @Fastaschit
    @Fastaschit Рік тому

    There's one problem I see people doing even in this tutorial. Why not lube both sides of each bronze washer? The washer is able to slip on the knife blade and frame both. In case you haven't noticed, the frame is sometimes the smoother side of the washer. For example, a Satin spyderco blade has grind marks that can grab the washer causing the washer to spin with the blade causing slippage at washer-frame. If you want to fine tune a knife..lube both sides of each washer. The knife will take the easiest path of slippage depending several things. Also polishing washers can't be a bad thing but would only work ideal if the opposing surface is smooth. If you notice in the video, the blade has a dlc coating that has worn appearance at the washer area. Dlc is not that smooth on a micro level. Satin blades are not smooth either in a different way. What I'm getting at, if you polish a washer, and use it against that rough blade then check it later. The blade really does a number on the washer. On satin blades you can notice after usage how the high spots of the blade grind has worn some. The blade steel is harder than the washer. It defeats the purpose to do all this work. One benefit of having blades not perfectly smooth like the polished washer would be, is those micro low spots hold lube better. I would think it be awesome if they made a blade that is mirrored smooth @ the washer contact. The scale polishing is a good idea if the scales are unsatisfactory in grip. Great video though. Lube ALL slip points and your golden.
