SwissTool Spirit replacement locking spring?
on: August 19, 2015, 03:03:29 PM
Does anyone have a source for replacement springs for the locking mechanism on the SwissTool Spirit?

Does Victorinox even sell replacements?

Thanks much  :)

Are they not scissor springs from a Classic?

Not the spring on the Spirit scissors, the leaf spring behind the button on the lock release mechanism.

It does look similar to the one on the Classic scissors, but it's shorter and thicker.  Not the same, sorry.

Once heard a "ding, looked in, and that spring had popped off. I was little surprised of that. Just pushed it back in, and was good to go.
