Victorinox58mm Scissors Spring, Genuine Part, Fits After 1995 Models, Silver, Metal

Perfect fit. Scissors now back working properly again.

I bought these for my little victorinox classic signature. a wee bit tricky to fit, but a good pair of readers on and a big light and my wee favourite pocket knife is back in action. thats months its been in now and still going strong. I cut all the 3 kids fingernails with this wee pocket knife so this spring has been in action on a near daily basis since I got it. I hate ragnails at work so this knife is always in my pocket for this main reason. I was gutted when the spring broke, and Im so please that this new one is good quality.

New spring makes a difference.

Too small for my knife but excellent quality despite that.

This was great. I have a little knife i got year's ago and i mainly use the scissors. I was so upset when the spring broke because that design is no longer made but i managed to fix them with this. It was a little fiddly to replace but the scissors work perfectly again. Definitely try this before replacing your knife.

A little fiddly to put in but finally managed by looking at you tube videos and going for and angled approach.

Easy to get old bit out with an old straightened out paper clip and easy to fit new one, with scissors partly open to show all the hole to put new spring in.

This can be very hard to fit and, personally, I found narrow-nosed pliers by far the easiest method. I ruined one spring following the method described by the manufacturer in the messages here. The problem is that you don't know how much force is needed and once the spring is kinked, that's it; it will never be 100% right. Once you've got the old spring out, align the tiny loop on the new one with the hole and apply gentle pressure with pliers. Use one hand to hold the scissors and spring line up as best you can. This can be very frustrating as everything wants to slip around. I recommend trying both sides to see whether the spring will go in more easily on one side or the other, because, as I found, you do NOT need a lot of pressure to get it in. I was successful with knife body on the left and scissors on the right, half open to expose the entire spring-hole. Good luck.
