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

- One set equals two individual cage bearings
I have a set of skiff installed on a ZT-0095S90BLK and it does seem slighly smoother than the factory set with good action, lockup and centering. I didn't feel it was as drastic a difference as I read in some of the reviews here but i only trialed them in a few knives before leaving them in that said model. I would really like to see an option that could include sets of hardened steel race washers with needed tolerances to fit along with the bearings to negate pitting and wear especially for knives having bare titanium races. With ceramic being about as hard as it gets its safe to say it will definitely track up some ti. Most knives Ive disassembled with steel bearings have races that show both tracks and pitting even with little use
These fit perfectly and are definitely worth the price. Made the action on my knife twice as good.
Its not comparable to large strizh as you said :)
Best thing you can do to your knife besides use it! $14 and 15 minutes can turn a knife that ehh to a knife that slays!
Buy them!
