Hey, can someone tell me what size allen wrench I need to loosen/tighten the bolts on my Captain's pocket clip? Thanks in advance all.

Wrong forum Rick. I think you meant to post it at the General section. Either way you will probably get your answer. I'm sure someone here knows.

Am sure Kristi will move this thread to the proper place.

In the mean time, while I do not have a Captain, almost all the newer Spyderco models use Torx fasteners, and the four sizes they use are #6 (clip screws on models, like the Captain, with the three screw clip), #8, #9, and #10 for the rest of the fittings. If you're in the US, and don't already have a set, I would suggest getting the Husky HD-74502 T which Home Depot sells. It's an inexpensive (around $6), reasonable quality driver that comes with all those bits, and more (8 sizes total) in a neat little package.

Deacon, I guess it can be called "mind reading"... :)
Thank you for answering the question that was bugging me for a while.

Thank you for the information, sorry I posted in the wrong thread. I could'nt even find this thread again and posted my question again elsewhere before finding your answer here. Thanks again.
