Typhoon Pivot Adjustment Instructions
When your knife is complete, use red Lock Tite on the pivot screw.
Make sure you clean the pivot screws and studs. Let the knife sit for a few hours so that the Lock Tite can set up. Then oil the pivots AFTERWORDS. Do not oil the pivots while the lock tite is drying. The lock tite has a tendency to make the pivots sticky at times. In this case work the pivots... adjust the screws (they will adjust). Put your oil on the pivots and work the handles in. This is a high precision butterfly knife. Please adjust the pivots and the TYPHOON will swing silent for a life time.

To add to Darrels suggestion,i find if you set pivots just a fraction to tight,so the handles have a tiny grab when flipped.once loc-tite has cured leave knife open and push handles in opposit direction's,this will relieve the minor tension and handles will swing free with maximun tight tolerance.
