Post by Warwick »

Hi lm looking for bails. I'm not to fussy about specific model types just something of general size perhaps similar to the ones found on electricians knives.

Also check out Discount Cutlery.

So a search for "Bail", and another for "shackle".
They have two different types of Schrade knife bails that they sell.

The bite in the butt on all of this is that the minimum shipping is likely $5 or more. If you can find one locally you are better off.
