Perfection
I installed these on my Hinderer 3.5” Eklipse Bowie and they took the action from good to great! They are super easy to install and you can see and feel the quality right away. I added a touch of nano oil and this knife is now drop shut perfection! As with all new bearings/folding knives I would spend a little time opening and closing to get them broken in.

Easy fix
I bought these for an American Blade Works Model 1 V6, which is a good knife, it just had a bad bearing. This was an easy fix. These bearings are a great product at a reasonable price with fantastic service, and fast shipping. I’ll definitely do more business with Gillian in the future.

Banger!
These took my Project X from Hinderer straight to perfection. I put Salt-n-pepper's in all my favorites. They really are worth every penny. My chaves 229 is freakish with these. Wish they came in more sizes!

Bearings
Love these bearings over all other bearings, and I've tried a lot. I like replacing most caged bearings with Gillians, it makes the pivot systems more stable, smooth and overall better quality.
