Knife Repair

[Jolly]

I've got a Buck folding knife that has lost a screw. It's a button-head, somewhat similar to this (although I haven't measured it yet)...

Is this a specialty item or can I source this locally at a hardware store or at a specialty nuts&bolts type business?

The local hardware store will have that in stock.

Jolly, Okay, that puts to rest the question as to whether or not you had a screw loose.

There was a question? 😄

If not, a hobby shop type store that sells components and parts for RC vehicles, etc, should have it.  That's where I used to have to go to get replacement screws for my wire frame glasses.
