Screws on each side, from memory, I don't have mine in front of me...

Thanks, I didn't want to waste my time removing the clip to get to the screw if there wasn't one.

Question, does the pivot only have the one screw, on the non-clip (factory) side? Or is it like the LW where you can adjust each side independently?

Mine has a wee bit of blade play, side to side.
Torx on both sides, hope this helps .Dan

Well, I was hesitating between the Yojumbo in S90V or a well heat treated CPM Cru-Wear knife. I think I know what to get after the Native 5 craze that is about to happen to my bank account!
:respect In the collection :respect : Lots of different steels, in lots of different (and same) Spydercos.

1/8 turn and no more blade play. Loving it.

Nice!
More observation: I was just fondling my G10 and Cru-carta PM2s while I was in the sock drawer :smirk , and I must say, while the micarta is not contoured they almost feel like it because the micarta is soft and pleasant to the touch. The edges do not feel sharp like the G10 versions I have. They also don't shred the socks as fast nor as much when I am taking them in and out of the socks to admire them :smirk . The factory micarta is sweet!
The steel is fantastic as always.
Factory micarta all the things!

Yeah, I agree, the Micarta scales have a velvety soft feel to them.
