~ $10 would get you an LB7 w/ good frame but used up blade.
Re: the Schrade LB7 w/ broken liner.
.
If the blade's in good shape .. you might be able to save that toward another LB7 w/ a used up blade. Sorry about the broken liner .. I think your out of luck on that one. On the 'bay .. used one's in good shape can be had in the 20~25 range.
Just out of curiosity .. what is the stamping ?
?? does the gap close up if you squeeze the effected area of the knife between your finger & thumb ??
.
Good & useful pics !
No hurry, Bruce .. take your time.
.
When you've the pic ready to post .. note the 2cnd icon from the left @ the top of this "comment" box. If you hover the mouse over that icon .. it will display "image".
Clicking on that icon will direct you to upload the image .. from your device to this forum.
.
If you already knew that .. please ignore & just proceed.

I will do that, but will have to take the picture first, Duh. I will try to get that done after I finish a couple of other little chores. Thanks.

... 'n welcome to the "Repair & Mod" group, Bruce !!!
.
As we all know .. pearl is rather fragile. If you'd post a pic of the existing gap between the pearl & the liner .. it would help toward proceeding w/ suggestions.
.
Enjoy,
D ale
