I have a Spyderco Mantra, titanium framelock with CPM-M4 steel. This is the first Mantra, it had the leaf shaped blade. Anyways. I was customizing it by anodizing scales and sanding the blade to a mirror finish. I ran into a big problem with the PIVOT though.
The Pivot is all messed up and the action is terrible. I think I put the "D" shaped pivot pin in wrong or something and it ended up stripping out the D shape in the titanium scale on one side.
Also the little metal bearing washer like tracks got screwed up as well.
I am wondering if Spyderco will be able to even help me with purchasing new hardware and a scale. I emailed them but have not heard back yet so I am wondering if anyone has any suggestions or knows what I can possibly do to get the action on this knife good again.
