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.
- 22% 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

The first set of Skiff Bearing's I ever put in was for a Titanium Kubey Royal. The difference is definitely noticeable. I mean it's not night and day but definitely smoother, probably about 15-20%. The knife just has a smoother more solid feel now. I'm thinking it's largely because of two things: One, there are more balls per surface area. Two, the balls don't rattle around in the milled solid phosphor-bronze cage like they do in a stamped steel cage. Whatever it is they really do make a difference. Skiff bearing are going in ALL of my premium knives and probably some of my favorite budget models TIP: Over tighten the pivot just to the point where the blade won't drop shut even with the lock held back. Then open and close the knife 40-50 times, then re-adjust to the correct pivot tension. This will help "set" the bearing's faster and speed up the break-in process
Excellent bearings as always. Wouldn’t expect anything less.
Perfect, as usual. Thank Skiff!

très bien fini, bien meilleur que l’origine même sur des couteaux haut de gamme .
