Loc: the other side of the earth
The day before or yesterday, I was sharpening a bunch of knives and noticed that the Dozier's blade was a bit loose. I took it apart and tightened it. I saw a pretty interesting solution for adjusting the blade's degree of freedom and locking it in place. The video initially just showed ducks in a local park
Here's the photo itself. It features a very robust pivot assembly, no weaker than a Strider or a Hinderer. The blade pivot has a through thread. A screw is threaded into one end, which compresses the two halves of the knife. A short, headless screw is threaded into the other end of the hole, holding the first screw in place. I assume no threadlocker is required with this system, although it could be used. On all-metal versions, this small right screw is hidden behind the clip
