Hmmm hard to see the head but meh. Did you try a phillips screwdriver yet? If that didn't work get a regular screwdriver with a blade the same width of the screw. Seat the screwdriver blade into 2 of the hex points. Take a hammer and pound the screwdriver so the blade bites into the screw. Carefully screw in until the screw falls into the hilt.

If that doesn't work get a power drill. Use a screw bit that is smaller than the dia. of the screw. Push hard on the drill and slowly turn the screw until it falls into the hilt. (you are not trying to put a hole through the screw just using the drill like a glorified screw driver.

I think you for the detailed instructions. I need to get some tools and maybe someone a little more qualified to help me out with this. Good thing I'm not planning any fights soon

Have you tried / do you have access to an "easy-out"?



Your screw is exposed enough for an easy out to bite into it. This should be able to remove it. Hopefully it's not cross-threaded.
