The new bearing compatibility list is now live, check it out here!
Cage bearings that allow more balls to be placed around the knife pivot than standard cage bearings. Which provides more support for the blade and decreasing stress on each ball. The ceramic balls are captured in the disc but are still free floating to prevent binding.
Includes Grade 5 ceramic bearings pre-installed.
- Increased blade support over caged bearings of same size
- Improved ball pathing around pivot
- Less pivot screw tightening required
- CNC machined from solid phosphor bronze

I love skiff bearings super smooth, I want to put them in every knife I own!
Holy cow the effect of these bearings can not be over stated. If you have a knife you love but with the action and feel was better? BOOM skiffs. Have a knife you really wish had washers? BOOM skiff thick washers. Highly recommend the pivot measuring card and the tool to assist with non captured pivots.
Fit perfectly and action of the knife is even better, highly recommend!
I wasn’t sure if Skiff bearings would be any sort of noticeable improvement over the installed factory options, but after changing out 3 of my knives with Skiff bearings I can say with confidence that these bearings are definitely an upgrade. Not sure they are noticeably smoother, because the factory bearings were smooth, but the Skiff bearings are built solid and not a thin cage or worse, a plastic cage. I’ve found that tuning the action on these knives has become easier with Skiffs. I’m a big fan now and plan to swap out more knives over time! Great work guys!
