NEW HARDWARE!

We are now making hardware in-house using 416 Stainless Steel. This hardware features a T15 screw head and holds to our stringent tolerances. 

-The new T15 screws are not compatible with old pivots-

Complete pivot hardware replacement kit includes:

2 x 1/4 hardened stainless bushings

4 x Hardened stainless washers

2 x Stainless Sexbolts

2 x Stainless T15 screws


Our bushings are carefully hand-tuned to the tenth to provide your MachineWise balisong with excellent tolerances and performance. Before purchasing hardware, please take note of the current configuration of your balisong. When a balisong is assembled with Phosphorus Bronze (PB) washers, the bushing embeds itself into the washer face. This embedment results in the bushing behaving as if it was shorter and the tune tightening. PB washers should be replaced during every disassembly to ensure a proper tune without bind. For an assembly that uses Stainless Steel (SS) washers, embedment does NOT occur. SS washers can be reused indefinitely when servicing a balisong. When a balisong assembled using PB washers is switched to SS, you can expect increased play. If the assembly is switched from SS to PB, bind may occur when fully torqued. 

In our experience, a balisong that is changed from PB to SS washers will retain full functionality with a slightly looser tune. If you have updated a MachineWise product and are not satisfied with the tune, we would be happy to resize the bushings and re-tune in-house.

Love it, great for machinewise balisongs and squid krakens too!

Thank you MW team for making it, it’s an underrated offering and definitely worth the lathe time!

Mark of a quality product

It is hard enough to find a well designed, quality American made product - but when you can also readily obtain original spares to have on hand- ( should you ever require them), speaks volumes about the company, it's team members and it's guiding principles.
There are many competitors for our money, but only very few which actually touch all the bases AND can be reached to speak directly with when necessary.
Well done gentlemen, PLEASE keep up the excellent workmanship !
Thank you.

Phenomenal quality as per Machinewise

The first thing I noticed was the tight fitting of the bushing and after installing them on a BRS, the handles have 0 deflection and no handle play. Get a set for your bali today before you forget. Also for me, I really appreciate the made in USA quality that is lacking in foreign products. Thank you and I will be getting more great products from you in the future

Perfection!

I purchased the full kit to use on a speed channel squid kraken. This gave a near perfect tune without any sanding and I haven't had any issues with the screws loosening (T15 is a huge plus). They also look great. I highly recommend them and will be getting more soon!
