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 ordered a set of cage bearing for my Civivi Vision FG and am very happy I did. Civivi's are very good already so I didn't know what to expect with the Skiffs bearings. Change out was very easy with the Skiffs bearings being a perfect size (thanks to the chart on the Skiffs Website!). In comparison, the Skiffs are solid and well made. Civivi's are hollow, in fact you can see this as on one side as it's wide open with bearings being crimped in unlike Skiffs which are solid on both sides. The advantage of this is they are less likely to gum up with sweat, oils, bebris causing issues. After putting everything back together with the Skiffs bearings in, the knife felt and sounded smoother on opening and closing (via thumb stud, Spidey flick and regular type opening). Skiffs makes great stuff and will probably order more for any other knives I may have running on this type of system. Quick delivery as well. Skiffs are pros at what they do!
Awesome Bearings from an Awesome Company, couldn’t be more happier & Highly Recommend!
I overtightened my vision fg with these in and now it is permanently stiff action. I stripped the screw trying to loosen it. Now I have to replace my Vision FG and can't enjoy it with skiffs. They seem to work fine in my Riffle though. I'm very scared to take the riffle apart now.
A+
Very nice bearings
