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 use skiffs in every knife I have. Whether it’s bearings or washers, skiffs are in it. I even keep a bunch on hand in case I “unexpectedly” get a new knife. They are fast to ship, always accurate, and of the highest quality. I love skiffs!
Love this Skiff bearings. the kunwu Compact Chad does not take 6 mm x 17 x 3/16 bearings
First time using skiff bearings. These absolutely make a difference. I used these in a Vosteed porcupine. And they eliminated any blade play and pivot lash. Making the action smooth as glass with drop shut action . Went from 9 ceramic balls to 17 on each side providing much more lateral stability in aggressive torquing cuts. While also providing less bearing chatter during deployment. The stock factory bearings have a stamped thin brass open air design providing pockets for lint and dust to accumulate within the bearings. These have very high machining tolerance from a solid disk of bronze eliminating any pockets for accumulation of such debris. I can honestly recommend these bearings and this company with confidence. Very happy with the results of this installation.
These made a night and day difference in both the knives I put them in, skiff never lets me down.
