I’ve done this to a few knives many years ago…. Works great on some but not all assisted knives as some use that spring to load up in the closed door position and holds the knife closed… That’s a great tutorial 🤘🤘
I've had a Blur with the partially serrated tanto blade ever since I saw John Reese with one years ago on Person of Interest. Too cool!😄 It is, without exception, clipped on my pocket every day! I used to use it for various cutting tasks but now it's kept razor sharp for "special needs" and I have various other folders for the mundane tasks.😉👍🏻
Just got one of these green blurs. I have many other knives but when I got into knives around 2007 a blur was one of my first ones and I wanted another
It gives it a different feel when deploying the blade as well as when closing it. Purely a preference thing. The blur has a very smooth pivot action which you can’t feel when the spring takes over. It’s very smooth.
There is a possibility that the assist spring will fail sooner or later. It's nice to know that in this case Blur will continue to function as if nothing had happened. Not all Kershaw knives have a recess in the blade for the detent ball.
I know this video is old. But I have two of the exact same knives. Even green. I carry one everyday at work the other rarely. I took my work one apart and cleaned it cause it was filthy. Been using it for years. Everytime I reassemble it the spring assist is weak now. Super weak almost doesn’t work. Everything seems to be seated back just how it was. My newer one POPS open really well. The wel used one wasn’t as strong but barely works now. What could I have done wrong? I’ve had it apart and back together 20 times and still the same.
Deassisted many blurs over the years but 90% of the time the centering is never right after that. Tried everything to fix it and nothing helps. On one I'm carrying a lot lately the blade rubs the side when it's closing. Super annoying but the knife is still usable.
@@edc4fun No problem, thanks for putting the video out! I'm going to keep playing around with mine to see if I can get it to center a bit better. Like I said it's still usable, it's just irritating to hear the blade scrape the scale when I close it

Awesome video Dennis! I had no idea you could modify the assist like that. I sure enjoyed it brother! 😊🇺🇸🔥👍👍
Thanks Craig! It doesn’t work on every brand, but this one does for sure. Glad you enjoyed and I appreciate you stopping by brother!

Yeah I tried it on that schrade Dirk gave me and it didn’t like it one bit lol. Thanks Alex 👊🏽
Dude….. LOVE this type of content!! ❤❤ mad props brother
Thank you so much bro!
Love it. I love the look of the blur but don't love Assisted knives. Thank you for this tutorial.
You’re absolutely welcome my friend. The blur is such a classic, solid knife. Thanks for checking it out!
Such a great color combination! A pretty blade...cool video!🔝👋
💯 agreed! Thanks!

Excellent! I absolutely love my blur. Thanks for stopping by 👊🏽
This was a super cool video I have never seen this done so I learned something. I always enjoy the content
🙏🏽 Thanks Chris! Happy to share some info, appreciate you checking it out.
That's pretty cool. I've got an old Kershaw thermite I might try this on. Great video 👍
Thanks Jeremy! Good luck, have fun!

Same here, thanks for stopping by!
What's the purpose of de-assisting them?

Great video! The blur was my first knife that wasn't a traditional. I may de-assist one after watching this, I got a real beat-up one and a newer one.
Nice! Thank you
I've been thinking of modding the inside scales by drilling holes for magnets (for the detent) & then de-assisting the knife...
@@DeconstructedWithJosh that’s a great idea
Well that looked a lot easier than my SOG lol. Nice video bro!
😆 thanks MiMo!

Did you check the spring for any defects? (cracks, etc) Also did you grease the spring?

I guess I’ve gotten pretty lucky with mine. Thanks for watching!

Great stuff, super helpful. Thanks for sharing!
My pleasure, thanks for watching!
Enjoyed the breakdown bro.
Thanks brother, glad you enjoyed!
Cool and interesting Video!👍
Thanks for checking it out! Have a great day!
Nice. You make that look way too easy.
Lol I’ve done it a time or two. Thanks
Very informative. Thank you
You’re most welcome my friend. Someone just asked me how to do it, so I figured I’d post this right quick for him.
@@edc4fun very cool..I don’t like assisted so if I ever happen to get one I can de assist it now! Thanks!
@@TBEDC yezzir!
Why though?
Why not?
