Advice needed (Victorinox model 75?)

[ComboTool]

Hi, I recently bought this SAK (which I think is a model 75 in fake mother of pearl). I like both the size and the toolset so I plan to use it but it needs a bit of work before. Besides some much-needed cleaning, one scale is broken and one of the pins is damaged, which causing a bit of play in the main blade. So here are my questions:

First, does anyone have experience with taking apart and reassembling this kind of SAK? From the outside it seems quite similar to the current models, but are there peculiarities I should be aware of? And does anyone know the size of the pins? I can measure them once it's apart but I'd rather have replacements ready.

Second, I can't find any source for the scales. The current slim 84mm models have a different pin setup. I could peen on the liners and then glue current scales on, but I like the exposed pins. If anyone knows where I can find the real thing I'd be very interested. I don't insist on fake MoP (actually I don't like it that much), cellidor would be fine (metal even better). The grail would be with toothpick and tweezer slots (I've seen pictures so I know they exist)

Here are closer pictures of the main blade, for those interested.

I’d usually look on ebay or etsy for scales, though I can’t recall seeing any for the slim 84 mm models.

You might consider sending it in to Victorinox for warranty work to see what they can do with it.  If you do this, though, I’d recommend being very specific in your correspondence about what you want and don’t want, e.g. you don’t want a replacement from the current lineup, you want YOUR knife back even if they can’t fix it, etc.
