OK-223 Knife Mods – Lock Bar Access, Bearings & Problems

I finally got ahold of the new OK-223 knife (similar to a Para 3), but of course they don’t come with cut out access to the compression lock! So here we go again with cutting away the lock bar access in the carbon fiber scales. But I also ran into lots of problems with burrs on the blade tang, bad bearings, and more. This turned into a lot more work than expected. Maybe we can learn something from this experience?

This is the first video in a brand new series that I want to do this year to see how the blade steel on some of the replica knives compares to the steel on “real” (non-replica) knives.
