Stud - Stainless

You know how so often you will buy a product that seems like it should be an easy install, but it turns out to be a bear? Not this one! I wanted to put a thumb stud on my Ka-bar Buck 110 clone so I ordered this. Delivered like lightning in the mail, I opened up the envelope, saw there was an allen key included, shook out the contents of the envelope, and had the install complete in 15 seconds. I did have to adjust the location to fit my preferences, but the entire install took less than a minute. It works perfectly, and I think it looks pretty sharp; just what I needed! And at a fantastic price, as well. Now I will actually be able to use this knife that has been gathering dust for years. Nice when a product works out so perfectly!

Fit's my Buck 110 just fine, but... I lack the dexterity to safely operate the knife one handed, if my thumb slips off the stud, my gripping fingers are going to a little bit shorter. This is a Me problem, not a product problem. It's a very well-made quality device and does exactly what it says on the tin. Recommended for folks that can run a lock back blade better than I can.

I bought this for my Gerber “alligator grip“ folder. It’s on and working very well! Two tips to mention: 1. Be sure to locate the tiny black Allen screw that, at least in my case, was not set in the stud when the package arrived. It’s easy enough to set it in the stud with the help of the included Allen wrench. But it may take you five extra minutes if it falls between the sofa cushions and you have to look for it. 2. I repositioned the stud on the back of the blade three or four times before I found the sweet spot that offered the best leverage and least resistance.. Be sure to experiment a bit with placement before you lock it down tight.

Adding a thumb stud to my Buck 110 was a great choice and this product works perfectly. I an marking it down one star because the stud is just big enough to interfere with the knife's removal and insertion into its sheath. As for price, at the time I ordered, I paid $12.73, and thought it a little expensive for the item, but at the current price (around eight bucks,) it is well worth it!

I received a Benchmade Mini-Taggedout knife as a gift, but I had trouble using the slit on the top of the blade to open it, so I installed a brass Kwik Thumb Stud. Well, the knife looks garish enough with its orange handles, and the brass thumb stud made it look like a Mardi Gras throw, so I ordered a stainless steel Kwik thumb stud and installed that on the Benchmade. Then I installed the brass one on a 40+ year-old Gerber LST knife that was my workplace EDC back in the day. Now I can open the LST with one hand! It was easy to install both studs, and the studs stay put. Opening the knives now is so much easier. BTW, just for fun, I tried slipping the brass stud through the slit of the Benchmade blade and installing it upside-down. It fit that way, too, but I didn't like the aesthetics of it as much.

Well made, easy installation, stays put. CAUTION: mine is on a Buck 112. I have to be careful not to let my fingers get into the path of the sharp cutting edge. One little slip could cut deeply and the Buck's spring is strong. Practice with care. Also: casing (wet forming) the knife pouch made for a perfect fit with the stud on.

I ran into this by mistake and glad I did! I have an older Bucklite 426V and rarely carried it because I have become so accustomed to quick release knives or at the minimum already had a thumb stud from the factory. This item works great and because its adjustable it allows the user to place it wherever works best on the blade for them. This is fantastic because we all have different size hands and the thumb stud may work (at one location) for some and those with bigger hands would like it farther down the blade. I experimented for the best location to find that “sweet” spot I was comfortable with. I also put some semi permanent thread lock on the screw to avoid it working itself free! Definitely worth the paltry price!

I put this on a Buck 110 and the knife doesn't open well. However, I'm sure it's because of the design of the knife not the stud. The stud seems to be holding very tightly to the blade. My complaint is that even though the he key is shown in the photo I did not have one included in my packaging. Had to dig through the garage to find one that fits. I also can't seem to take the stud off to put on a different knife.

Funciona muy bien.

折りたたみナイフを片手が開閉させるためのスタッドです。 Made in USAでなかなかいいものです。 本体の大きさ：Φ7.1mm×H10.2mm 対応する刃の厚み：3.2mm ※JIS1級ノギスで計測。 私はVICTORINOX 111mmモデルののアウトライダーNLに装着しています。 それ以下の、トラベラーやALへの装着はできません。

I am impressed with how well this works, how easy it is to adjust and install and how well It blends in. Very good product, I may buy an other.

Ottimo thumbstud. Si adatta bene anche a coltelli con spessore lama inferiore rispetto ai Buck classici. Materiali e qualità costruttiva ottimi.

Para agregar a un cuchillo Buck que tengo fue excelente el Tumb Stud, es muy fácil de instalar y de muy buena calidad. No se arrepentiran al comprarlo.
