Title: Graflex blade holder
Post by: Xiphos on August 15, 2021, 01:40:14 AM
Greeting! I recently purchased an empty US Graflex as a DIY project, and I'm wondering how to remove the blade holder from the main body for LED installation? Is removal of the blade holder even required to install the LED?  How does US do it? I know the bunny ears and the top button unscrew, what I can't seem to figure out is the large button on the underside. It's in there fast and won't budge a bit. Is it glued in? I don't want to "Force" it and damage anything! Thanks!

I have a Graflex but don't want to take it apart. But from the times I took the blade out I think its a solid piece type set up, only the pommel is removable. I could be wrong though. Looks like the saber would be installer friendly though for sure either way

The blade holder itself is held in place by either a button head or socket head type retention screw right above the coloured button (opposite of the bunny ears). That retention screw needs to be removed in order to remove the blade holder.
The outer emitter piece is not removable, only the inner part which is the actual blade holder.
