5.5" Italian knife repair

Post by Scotchman »

Hope everything is well for everyone. I have a new Italian 5.5" knife that the release bolster swivels (up) and has a top bolster pin that sticks out (opposite side of release bolster). Can someone do the repairs? Bill, Jeremy, ?

I can, but why not just file it down yourself?

I don't know repairs much, thats why I asked someone else. Someone who knows what they are doing.

Is it normal for the bolster to swivel backwards? My other Italians don't as far as I know.
