A military tool with no blade?! Be careful, that pointy brass scraper also looks... well pointy. I don't think any hard to obtain tools are needed but I haven't ever handled a MUT so wait until someone who has one comes in here.

You will need a pair of Security Torx T10 bits. Heat up the screws with a torch or soldering iron first to loosen the loctite threadlocker inside. You will need some washers to take up the spacer again.

The pivot size is 7/32" so your washers will have to be at least that big.

That Torx-bit costs about...nothing? At least when compared to price of MUT.  :think:

The why ask the question? Odd.

Anyways, good luck finding a hammer on a tool that doesn't suck.
