Looking for an expert knife fixer for jndiana pattada
Am looking for someone who feels confident that he or she can fix a jndiana pattada switchblade. Need hourly rate? Right now the blade will not close properly and the firing button is frozen as if it is in lock. Can only open by squeezing the blade into the handle pressing the button and then it opens enough for me to pull it into a fully open and locked position. Also I dont know if the blade is locking deep enough into the handle to engage the button release mechanism? Lastly in order to lock the blade closed I have to push the lock button upward into lock and then slde it back down into open. But it still wont fire. It was for a while with seversl hard presses to the button and then stopped.completely. NEED someones help with this knife if possible. PM me or email to rnchesnut1@gmail.com. Thanks Rob
