    The “integral” method of assembly/disassembly seems like more effort than it is worth. The omega springs are a minor complication, but after removing and installing them a few times it isn’t that bad.

    Hahaha well that was very kind of them fair play, I will say they might not be very cheap in fact they can cost more than the original knife but they do make the very best as in fit and finish if you’re looking to mod up on your knives. Like the bug out it turns that into a right solid feeling piece. Thanking you very kindly Nick for yet another beautiful piece of work! Have a beautiful day stay safe and healthy 😘👍

      @@scottmurdock1393 I take it back and will apologise to you you are indeed correct I think where I might be getting so fecked over is that I live in the UK and even though on flytanium’s sight they are only $70 when or if I try to get my hands on them if I get them from a UK retailer the one set of para 2 plain titanium scales was £130. But back to the bug out from them it is $70 then anything from $15-$34 postage then when they hit this fecking country the Mail service has a thing with anything from the USA the Mail service cut it open that’s £8 for them to cut some tape then hand it over to the VAT bastards now if they go and check on flytanium’s site then they will see the true price but if they just check a local UK shop that’s what they base the vat on and it can then add anything from £20_35 on top.

    The integral method works fine, but let me suggest putting the stick part of a q-tip in front of the lockbar to take the tension off of the system. Then you won't need quite so much dexterity.

    Hey Nick, I know I'm a little late here but it seems to me you put the pivot back correctly on your first try. I reviewed the video a few times and it seems at 2:39 you are removing the pivot screw from the clip side. After you reassembled, it can be seen at 11:51 that you put the pivot screw right back from where you removed it. After which you disassembled all over again, only to reinstall it backwards.
    I don't know, maybe I'm mistaken. Maybe I've had one to many whiskey shots!😉

    All you had to do is remove one side, replace it, flip it over and replace the other. Leave a pin or something in the pivot hole and you would be done.

    On the one hand, titanium scales would certainly upgrade the feel and quality of a Bugout. On the other, they kind of squash the qualities that make a Bugout a Bugout! (Ultra lightweight). Guess it all depends what you are looking for....

    I too used to try and keep small screws in place on the end of a screwdriver with my index finger until I discovered that if you put the tip of the driver into a small blob of blue tack, twist it a few times and pull it out again, just enough blue tack stays on the end of the driver that it grips the screw and doesn't come off in the screw head....
