1/4" pivot diameter · 22 ceramic balls · 1mm ball size
Swapping to Skiff Workshop bearings is one of the most noticeable upgrades you can make to a folding knife — more blade support, less pivot tightening required, and a smoother feel from the first open. Designed and made in the USA.
Skiff Workshop cage bearings are CNC machined from solid phosphor bronze, an alloy valued for its strength, corrosion resistance, and naturally self-lubricating properties. Each cage is designed to hold more balls around the pivot than standard bearings, distributing load evenly and keeping the blade stable under use.
The balls are Grade 5 silicon nitride ceramic, made to within 5 millionths of an inch of perfect roundness. Harder and lighter than steel, ceramic balls generate less friction and maintain consistent performance over time. The balls are captured in the cage and remain free-floating inside for smooth, consistent rotation.

Fits perfectly. Gives better stability.
Love your bearings. They have always improved every knife’s action. Great quality. I use my knives and I find that your solid phosphorus bronze washers that are solid on both sides reduce the amount of grit that gets in the bearings. Open race bearings, collect more debris faster your design is excellent..
Improvment over just about any factory bearing. Upgraded my Demko AD20S from single row 8 ball to multi row 22 ball.
Created a “Frankenstein” Shaman with after market parts and these bearing at he center. Works perfect, very very different feel for a Spyderco on bearings!
