Looking for a knife mechanic

I am looking for someone who can repair my Camillus 1973 military pocket knife. As you can see from the photo, it has a broken spring. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks

Start with "Muskrat Man Knives". His name is Caleb. You can contact him through his store with the same name. Just click on "Buy" at the top left and scroll down to his store. You can message him from there.

Just my $.02 here but..... These are really common.
You can buy 3 or 4 new knives like this one for the price of repair by a good knife mechanic.
.
Is this one special to you in some way?
Maybe your Dad's or something?

Just asking.

I was in the service (USAF) and was in Thailand in 1973. This is a 1973 knife, so yeah, I kind of guess it's special to me.

Here's a 1973...for $40 (includes shipping). Then, if anything breaks...you'll already have a "parts knife".

to AAPK, BBQDAWG. As it so happens, I was carrying one of those Camillus knives today. Hope you can get yours fixed, I have heard that the springs are notorious for breaking on this model for some reason.
