8mm pivot diameter · 20 ceramic balls · 1/16" 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.

I Absolutely Luv Skiff Bearing'z what a Fabulous invitation & product. All My DIVO knive'z & JackWolf knive'z & now buying 4 My Microtech's have been Pimped Out with Skiff bearing'z. Huge difference, Silky Smooth difference & make's the Microtech Amphibian just that more Scary & Fun.
Highly Recommend Skiff Bearing'z. & Thank U 2 all involved @ Skiff !
I now have two knives that are equipped with these bearings. The Flytanium Beef and a Microtech MSI, booth blades now travel smooth as butter! Great product, if you are thinking about purchasing do it you won’t regret it.
Amazing quality upgrade to my Microtech Amphibian. Thank you
These are a great replacements for factory bearings. They provide a smoother action and more stable blade by providing more surface area of contact. The sealed bearings make it so dirt and debris doesn’t get trapped inside.
Those ones actually fits not only to socom elite and anax.
They are also fit to socom delta's first generation. the only issue is that delta bearing spacer is plastic and slightly wider comparing to this one. it sits on both sides inner and outer and prevents from micro play of the blade. be ready that it might appear, but it nothing to do with bearing itself.
