Buck 560 reblade
on: April 25, 2021, 11:13:03 AM
Just used my last Buck 110 blade on an old & worn Buck 560 from a friend of mine.
Had to use the old backspring as i'm all out of new ones, but luckily i still had a new blade, a pivot pin, and a bronze bushing.
The new pivot pin wasn't riveted with a hammer, but pressed using a vise and a little home made tool.
Pressing lessens the chances of damaging the handle plus it allows for a more precise tightening of the pivot, in this case to a 99.99 % bladeplay-free action.

Great save on a very desirable knife. I had a model 186 which was the take down version of the 560 and it served me well. About half the weight of a 110 and very comfortable to use.

Good save on that 560.

I have one from 1993 that I never used.I just recently picked up a 186 that's in need of some TLC.
