Rockytime Posted April 27, 2018 Report Share Posted April 27, 2018 I'm guessing the blade clamp is aluminum. Aluminum is relatively soft and the screw or bolt used to tighten the blade needs to be a course thread like 10-24 but it is probably metric.

Thing is, the description said it was steel, but I think that refers to the screw itself, not the handle. My knee-jerk reaction is to classify these handles as junk, but considering it's somewhat hard to close the clamp even with the original hex head screw, I could be wrong. Anyway, I'm ordering a replacement blade clamp hoping MAYBE it'll be easier to close and less hard on my hands.
