First mod done. I present...

Great work Pabs - you're quickly turning into a mad genius! Love these threads. Might have to nick some ideas for a bladeless from you. 

I recognise that mag glass!

Will definitely have to do one of those. May call it the Pabsman.

How about Pabsman small, or mini Pabsman?

Mini Pabsman.

Regarding the corkscrew issue, it may be that the spacer pieces aren't enough to properly tension the backspring. Maybe the tang (only) off a small blade, with one standard spacer piece might yield better results. Aside from that, that's a nice knifeless mod

Thanks, I'll consider that if I ever get some Dremel bits for SS.

Found some new info while trawling through old mod posts.

Master Mechanic is a great fit or Mechanic Plus.  I love that knife.  Quick question, does the file need to sit alone or could the small blade go opposite of it?

The trick is you need to use the main blade spring.  It turns out that the main blade is thicker than the older style file by the width of a standard liner, almost exactly.  I used the standard spacer on the small blade side, filing off the tooth at the top and then made a spacer for the file side by sacrificing an old Al liner.

The interesting thing here is that Mr.Whippy used a spacer made from a standard liner.

I guess the old vs new file distinction is important too...maybe old file is more narrow?

Maybe, though I don't think so. Anyone know for sure?
