I contacted Victorinox asking for some bails but their local (to me) dealer didn't have any.

Are they really that rare?

I have some swaps and Paypal here if anyone has some spare bails for me.

Would the bail be hard to make out of wire?

I took the smallest pin stock for 91mm SAK modding and bent it Mags :cheers: You should have hit 50ft up at the meet for some :pok: :D

Good luck and hope you get this sorted :salute: :like:

That makes me think... The seller I just received 2.5mm pin stock from included a little bit of what appears to be 2mm pinstock as a bonus. I'm not sure what to do with it, but do you want it mags?  :think:
Hooked, like everyone else. ;)

All hail the hook!

Cheers Lads - I have brass pin stock (I did hit fiddy up for some at the meet!).

Reason I want the actual bail is that it is tough and springy enough to sit tight and hold on with just a dimple drilled into the rivet. This means I could add a bail to my red OC Pioneer 'Field Tripper'.

See the pic below of my Black Pioneer for an example:

Look what you've done. By telling me that now I want need a bail for my upcoming alox opener mod.  :twak:  :facepalm:
  :rofl:

I wonder if one can do that with the 2.5mm pins on a 91mm SAK.  :think:

Hooked, like everyone else. ;)

All hail the hook!

Am I the only one to read spare balls instead of bails?...
