Hiya Chocrates...(cool handle by the way).....
I stole my name from Socrates also...."ExamonLyf" ~~> as in his famous quote ~~> "The unexamined life is not worth living"..... And yeah..., doing a BASIC Typhoon kit is really easy, and you do get instructions on the basic set-up. Just don't file too much material out of the tang pin cups. That's the most common error I've seen. Very cool knife!

You can pick up everything you need right on the Knife Kits site ~~> HERE.., or any Home Depot or Lowe's would also have what you need.
You'll need an 1/8" round file for the tang-cups, and a set of the Torx ####### in the tool section. No need for sanding at all, but I'd suggest using a set of the Phospur-Bronze washers. You'll also need some thread adhesive. "LOC-TITE" is the only way to go.., and in my opinion either blue or red are both OK..., just don't over do the application. Just takes a TINNNNNNNNY bit applied with a tooth pick on the pivot screws. Knife Kits has all this stuff ready to go.., and you'll have no problem at all. Have fun with it.., great knife for the $$$$. __________________ Pete Johnston ~~> ExamonLyf@aol.com "There is no greater wisdom.., than [KINDNESS]" "Hunters seek what they [WANT].., Seekers hunt what they [NEED]" Last edited by ExamonLyf; 11-17-2007 at 12:48 PM. |
