Spyderco UKPK

[BobvanVelzen]

Hi everybody,

I am the proud owner of a Spyderco UK Penknife, with G10 scales and flat ground blade. After lending it out for some time, one of the screws is missing (lowest one in the middle - but i believe they are all the same). I want to replace it, but i have no idea what material they are. Anyone knows?

And yes I have 3, don't ask me why. I just wish one was orange.

Thanks, Bob

i would suggest stainless steel

 

[BobvanVelzen]

My first thought as well. Thanks for the fast reply.

a pleasure, not sure where you would get screw like that though, maybe a model makers shop ? or even email spyderco, they would probably send you some free of charge as they have a very good customer service department.

Yeah, contact Spyderco and no doubt you can get them direct. Their customer service is superb.

Just out of interest, do you know what size bit they take?

I'm 99.9% sure they are M3 SS Button heads, check screw length if you remove and measure one.

Fleabay has loads in stock if you are stuck.

As Ray said: lending your knife is bad practice.... Try calling the Old Man in A'dam if you're having trouble finding the screw.

I will send Spyderco NL an email to ask for one (or two). Thaks for the help.

Any idea of the size torx bit they use?

T9 on the FRN's. Pretty much the same on the G10, CF and Ti ones, although the clip and pivots can be T8's on older versions.
