Button heads come in plain stainless with a T-6 or T-9 drive or in black coated stainless with a T-6, and the T-9 and black versions are USA-made, DFARS compliant 302HQ. For a flush finish on handle scales, the flat heads include a stainless T-6 in three lengths, a stainless T-9 and a black oxide T-9.

Socket head choices start with a stainless T-8 in 0.125, 0.230 or 0.500 inch. Made in Montana and sold as a 1-pack, the SK Design shallow socket head is machined titanium with a 0.250 inch thread and a head 0.055 inch tall for tight clearance. CKK designed the Alien Torx and Alien Spanner screws for installing knife pivots or swapping out factory hardware, and both are 302 stainless, with the Alien Torx also offered in black. Sold as a 1-pack, the stainless faux screw is a press-in fix for a stripped 2-56 hole.

Compare these with the 0-80, 1-72 and larger thread sizes on our knife screw page. If you are weighing the Alien Torx against the Alien Spanner for a pivot, tell us about your build.
