I should've watched this before I took mine apart to change the back spacer. Like a dumbass, I disassembled mine with the spring still in battery (blade closed). I grabbed the spring and it leg go against my fingers.....hurts like a sonofabitch LOL. That's a nice, thick spring. Took me a bit to finally figure out you have open the blade to disassemble/assemble these things. Trying to put it back together in the closed position is damn near impossible. The parts of a Kershaw are a more precise fit than a typical Benchmade IMHO. Don't have to beat and bang on a Kershaw to get the studs back in place, they snap right together.

Absolutely! I'm sorry that happened to you! I agree that Kershaws have pretty great tolerances compared to Benchmades!
Great vid ! One question: where do I find aftermarket upgrade parts for this knife? Wasn't able to find anything on Ebay.
As far as I know there arent any
@@ohioknifelover That's what I thought. Anyway, thank you for very good video. At list now I know how to take care of this knife.
@@Durgmar I'm glad you liked the video
Thanks for sharing!
First time you disassembled it the spring and it's cavity was full of grease?
Yes I had grease in the opening!
instaBlaster.
How did you get the third one one out? At the start of your video it’s already out
I was lucky to get it loose enough to where I got hold onto the non-tooled side with a pair of pliers
@@ohioknifelover dang, mine just keeps spinning and I don’t want to use lock tight because I want to switch the handle scales
Tnx for the video 👍🍻😁
Hope I helped a little or at least made it entertaining lol
@@ohioknifelover it helped me out alot, just cleaned my Link 👏🍻😁
