Cheers fellas for the input. I reckon ill go for it

The other day I lost my Mercator in the river while eeling and now looking for a replacement as it was an awesome outdoors knife. The original had a carbon steel blade(unknown exactly what type of steel) but I noticed there is a stainless model available, that being 1.4034 stainless steel which I've...

I havent seen or heard of any DF pivot screws with slightly bigger heads,, I can see what you mean by the little gap around the screw head. I notice on the other side with the dome there is this little washer, if you could get another one of those you could probably slip it in to make it look a bit ...

Pretty boring to some but I bought my first Glock ever. In my state, Glocks are off limits to civilians. Always wanted to check one out, so the day I graduated from the academy I went to shop and used my credentials on a new Blue label G19.5! A week later I had to go back to buy the G45 sitting in ...

I was gunna get one of those ruger mk4s but i prefer the controls on the grand power over the ruger. having used both i find it easier and faster to clear any jams, mag swaps, sa...

I ended up disassembling the knife and cleaning the parts with isopropyl alcohol, the disassemble and reassemble was a lot easier than i thought it would be.

Cheers all for the replys, helpful to have other peoples opinions :)

You can also use BC "Synthetic Safe" Gun Scrubber -- which is predominantly canned/pressurized alcohol -- to blast out the gunk. I've used it on a lot of pistol frames, knives, etc. over the years. Here's the MSDS: https://www.birchwoodcasey.com/content/datasheets/Gun%20Scrubber%20Aerosol...

Thanks all for replys :)

I'm gonna say it should be fine, I use brake cleaner for all sorts of crap around the house.


Also your warranty is fine as long as you don't screw anything up in the process of disassembly/reassembly.

good to know about the warranty

Shipping almost anything to NZ has been expensive enough, And I have been finding most things to do with "tactical" knives, hunting knives, also stuff like rifle scopes and optics, and other parts require import permit. Seems like anything to do with "weapons". Some of these thin...

I have 2, a Ruger AirHawk which has been modified (spring broke as well so I had to fix that) and a Cometa Fenix 400. all 2 are in .17 cal. Me and my friend used to always go out and shoot pest birds.

Leatherman REBAR along with my PM2

Been wondering if anyone uses one often, and if so, what you'd normally use it for?

I drink Rooibos, good stuff.

Glad to see im not the only one who noticed this :D
