What is included in this sale is only 1 x Titanium Axis Lock Bar to fit the original Benchmade Bugout knife.

Notes on Anodizing Aluminum and Titanium.
The original Benchmade BRASS Thumb Studs are made from BRASS ANODIZED ALUMINUM.
NOT BRASS ANODIZED TITANIUM.
It is very hard to do an exact color match as they are on 2 different materials and use 2 different anodizing processes.
My custom titanium parts will be hand anodized to a BRASS color. Please note: This will NOT be an exact match
to the factory aluminum Thumb Stud color. Please be aware of this by viewing the pictures for details.
By purchasing this set you are agreeing to this color difference. (I do sell BRASS Titanium Thumb Studs if needed to match)
* By placing an order for these BRASS ANODIZED parts you are accepting there could be a variation in color.
THE BENCHMADE AXIS LOCKING SYSTEM IS QUITE FIDDLY TO TAKE APART AND RE-INSTALL.
YOU WILL HAVE TO TAKE YOUR WHOLE KNIFE APART IN ORDER TO
INSTALL THIS PART.
THERE ARE 2 WIRE SPRINGS HOLDING IT ALL TOGETHER. SO BE
CAREFUL NOT TO LOSE
THESE SPRINGS AS THEY ARE VITAL FOR A FUNCTIONING AXIS
LOCK.
THERE WILL ALSO BE A SLIGHT COMPROMISE IN BLADE OPENING SMOOTHNESS FROM THE
TITANIUM PART RUBBING ON THE BLADE TANG AREA. POSSIBLY LUBE OR POLISHING THE
TANG CAN HELP. THE AXIS LOCK BAR COMES ALREADY POLISHED TO A SMOOTH SURFACE.
BY PURCHASING THIS ITEM YOU ARE AWARE OF THE ABOVE MENTIONED AND THAT DAMAGE
OR THE
POTENTIAL FOR MISSING PARTS COULD OCCUR AS A RESULT OF TAKING OUT THE
ORIGINAL AXIS LOCK BAR. YOU ALONE WILL BE TAKING FULL RESPONSIBLY FOR ANY SUCH
DAMAGE OR LOSS. (THE BENCHMADE WARRANTY MIGHT NOT COVER THESE TYPES OF
MODS)
IF YOU ARE NOT CONFIDENT IN TAKING APART AND PUTTING YOUR KNIFE BACK TOGETHER
(OR IF ANYTHING ELSE GOES WRONG), IT IS BEST NOT TO BUY THIS ITEM.
If you are an international buyer, I may request your phone number and confirmation that
you understand only the Axis Lock Bar is only for sale. No knives pictured are for sale.
Anodized Titanium Cleaning Tip:
To maintain the look of your new titanium parts.
Gently wipe clean with some Acetone but at the same time
be careful NOT to get Acetone on any G10 or Carbon knife scales.
