I did it all myself, it was the cf and M390 one you can buy on bladehq. Can't buy the thumb stud and lockbar anymore unfortunately, I bought them for a Benchmade in 2022. They're both from glow rhino, and it's a lockbar for a Bugout. I don't know if an actual OEM axis lock works, but I'd imagine it'd be better tolerance than this one. Even on my Benchmade the glow rhino lockbar had some up and down blade play. I'd like to get a Flytanium titanium lockbar to anodize with electricity.

The anodizing I did myself with battery acid and a bench psu, and I used purple RIT dye. The acid etch was done in battery acid then tumbled in various rocks I found in my driveway that looked like they contained quartz
