I want to reverse the clip on my Zulu. I got out my precision screwdriver set and nothing fit. I thought they were tiny philips heads but I must be wrong.
My eyes aren't that good but, I think they must be some kind of tiny hex key. I don't want to screw up the black paint or strip them with the wrong driver.
Can anyone tell me the proper tool to use on Spyderco clip screws?
Clip Reversal...What tool?

It's a type. It has 6 points. Size is typically call like T7, T8 and so on. You can buy a kit like this for cheap.ouchyfoot wrote:Is that a name brand or a class type. What is the general shape of this type of driver?... Sorry...time for a new eye prescription .

Based on recommendations from members on this forum I purchased a Kobalt 8-in-1 precision Torx head screwdriver from my local Lowes for less than six bucks. It has worked great on all my Spydies using Torx screws and provides a convenient place to safely store all the bits.

I have the Husky one from HD also. I got it a long time ago based on a recommendation I think I read on this forum. It has a "lifetime" guarantee (although I hope I never have to try to enforce it with Home Depot). I really like it.

The Husky 8 in 1 Torx driver comes with 4 two sided bits 3 of which store in the handle. One of the two sided bits is T6 and T9, which is pretty convenient for working on most :spyder:
