Custom Machined 9 Piece Titanium Torx Screw Set
Anodized in GREEN to fit Spyderco Paramilitary 2 (PM2) Knives.
The factory standard torx screws are not titanium.
They might get rounded, threaded or simply get lost over time.
Upgrade the standard torx screws, to a set of rust proof Custom Designed Titanium Torx Screws anodized in GREEN.
These Custom Designed Titanium Torx screws are a direct replacement for the Original Spyderco PM2 knives.
These custom parts are not designed to fit Cloned or Fake Spyderco knives.
Do not buy these parts for any cloned or fake knives as they probably won't fit.
Might also not fit aftermarket scales if they are not the same dimensions as the factory scales.
If needing longer pocket clip screws for a thicker pocket clip or thicker scales. (Contact me for options)
Please note: No knives pictured or mentioned are for sale.
What is included in this sale is only the 9 piece set of Titanium Screws to fit the Original
Spyderco PM2 knife. Consisting of only 9 x GREEN Anodized screws in total.
This 9 Piece set includes the following titanium screws:
2 x T10 Torx GREEN Anodized Titanium Pivot Screws
4 x T8 Torx GREEN Anodized Titanium Body Screws
3 x T6 Torx GREEN Anodized Titanium Anodized Pocket Clip Screws
Anodizing Notes:
Green is the hardest color to anodize, this color can vary on single parts to full sets from a Blue Green to a Yellow Green color.
I have almost perfected it and I will try my best to keep the color as consistent as possible within the set purchased as many things affect it.
Like ambient temperature, age of chemical mix, length of time anodizing, voltage, pre-cleaning procedure, voltage contact etc.
(I am often re-doing it a few times to get it right, or wasting parts or throwing away parts in the process, it can easily take around 2 hours per set to get right)
Green is also very hard to capture on a photograph as it's true color may look different under different lighting conditions or on different angles.
or even on different screens when being viewed. I have included a Pantone color chart in the photo to show the green anodizing color. Pantone 339.
Please take this a general color range only. As in real life it looks brighter due to titanium's metallic surface reflecting through the color.
Additional PM2 parts: If wanting the Full Parts Set (screw set / standoff / pin / lanyard tube) best
to order ALL the PM2 parts at the same
time.
So it will be in the same anodizing batch and match much better than if ordered at a later date.
Machining Notes:
* By placing an order for this 9pc Set you are accepting there could be a variation in color or machining to what is pictured.
FEBRUARY 2019 UPDATE:
AFTER YEARS OF TRYING TO GET GREEN ANODIZING A CONSISTENT COLOR.
I HAVE FINALLY "CRACKED THE CODE" AND NOW GREEN ANODIZING IS AVAILABLE.
IT TAKES MUCH, MUCH MORE TIME TO DO, DUE TO EXPENSIVE TOXIC LIFE SHORTENING CHEMICALS
AND THE SAFETY GEAR NEEDED. THERE IS ALSO MUCH MORE PRE-ANODIZING PREPARATION NEEDED.
ALSO MANY COLOR MATCHING RE-DO'S. THEREFORE GREEN COSTS MORE THAN OTHER COLORS.
AROUND JAN - FEB 2019 - WAS OUT OF STOCK DUE TO RUNNING OUT OF SOME PARTS IN THE SET.
THEN DECIDED TO RE-DESIGN THE SET AGAIN WITH SOME SUBTLE DESIGN CHANGES.
POCKET CLIP SCREWS ARE NOW UPGRADED, STRONGER AND LOOK BETTER!!!
Many wasted reject parts, lots of wasted tooling, much headaches, much $$$$.
It has taken around 8 to 9 Generations and at least 4+ years to get it to this stage.
WAS OUT OF STOCK DUE TO SELLING OUT.
THEN DECIDED TO RE-DESIGN THE SET AGAIN TO BE STRONGER.
POCKET CLIP SCREWS ARE NOW UPGRADED AND NOW STRONGER!!!
Many wasted parts, lots of wasted tooling, much headaches.
It has taken around 7 Generations and at least 4 years to get it to this stage.
JULY 2018 UPDATE:
WAS OUT OF STOCK DUE TO BEING RE-DESIGNED.
PIVOT SCREWS ARE NOW STRONGER!!!
Many wasted parts, lots of wasted tooling, much headaches.
It has taken around 6 Generations and at least 3+ years to get it to this stage.
Previous updates...below.
Please note: These custom screws were extremely hard to make.
It took many production runs and a very long time to get it to this stage.
This is as good as I can get it, as it is very hard to hold when machining
because of the thin angled edge on the countersunk screw head.
Please be aware that the screw's head may stick out from the scale
by a very, very tiny little amount. As shown in the ebay photos attached.
The G10 scale can be possibly countersunk a little be more to fix this.
However by purchasing this set you are aware of this. (2018 UPDATE = NOW FIXED)
2018 UPDATE: These are now perfect!!!
Many wasted parts, lots of wasted tooling, much headaches.
It has taken around 5 Generations and at least 3 years to get it to this stage.
2017 UPDATE: These screws were machined to fit perfectly with every allowable tolerance however it was a bit too thin
and caused it to break when torqued down hard. Had to scrap them and re-design. (2018 UPDATE = NOW FIXED)
2016 UPDATE: The scale screw's Torx drive head wasn't machined well.
Which was very hard to do on such a small thin countersunk head = looked crap. (2018 UPDATE = NOW FIXED)
2015 UPDATE: So many trial runs and bad batches. (didn't even list it up on ebay).
Many issues to sort out. (2018 UPDATE = NOW FIXED)
2014 UPDATE: Too many issues to list and remember.
Much wasted $$$$$ on tooling that didn't work. (2018 UPDATE = NOW FIXED)
Installation Notes:
The PM2 knife can be quite tricky to take apart and put together compared to other knives.
Please do not purchase this set if you are not confident in taking your PM2 apart and putting it back together.
Even tuning the tightness of the PM2 body screws can effect the pivot opening performance.
The original PM2 screws can be quite hard to remove. Please watch some youtube videos beforehand to
see how it is done. The factory loctite thread glue can make the screws hard to get out too causing the Torx head to strip.
Before installation of these titanium screws. Please clean and remove all existing factory loctite glue.
Also use some Good strong quality Torx tools to (Such as Wiha Torx tools).
Other Notes:
Other colors such as: purple, blurple, yellow, maroon, raw titanium, black, light blue, brass, dark blue, bronze, gold, green etc.
Once you have received a colored titanium item. It may appear to have lost color once touched,
this is just the oil from your hands. If the oil been cleaned off the color will come back. See cleaning tip below.
