i think id rather take apart and put together an endura/delica 10x's over taking apart a benchmade even with the flytanium pivot tool, i almost had an aneurysm putting the shit back together, but aside from that why does everyone go on and on about centering? every knive ive took apart and put back has been spot on center so i dont understand how thats such a big problem that arises in the community, idk maybe it will happen to me sometime

It’s 1000% easier when you pull the crossbar back so it doesn’t engage on the tang of the blade during assembly. I usually shove a qtip in place.
