Folder Help

[whiteeugene]

Can one of you experts please explain to me how to put a folder together? I purchased some scale material off of EBay and a kit from knifekits. I got it all finished and went to put together and had a terrible time getting the blades in place those springs a strong. Are there some special word you need to say because I used all the 4, 6 and 8 letter words I knew an after 20 years in the ARMY you can be assured I know a few. Well I finally got it together only to realize I had mixed the blades up and the notches were covered up had to take it apart and start over.

Thanks

Well the three P's work best. Patience, Practice and Perserverence. No easy answers to your query. It would depend on which knife from which kit supplier and even then without being able to show you it would be nearly impossible. But, if you take your time and figure out the logic of it , it will go along ways towards teaching how to make your own. Not the answer you were looking for I'm sure but.......

Thanks for the info I was hoping there was a jig or something that made it easer.

Come over to the knife show OKCA, I'll bring my plasma cutter. Stop by, I'll bring some tools.
