I have a VSF 124060 that arrived with a bent flip lock on the clasp. I'm trying to replace it with a proper one, but I can't seem to figure out how to remove it. There seems to be a spring bar, but the tolerances are too tight to fit a tool in the location where you would for a normal spring bar. There also seems to be a small groove that's accessible on the inside of the clasp, but I've yet to find a tool fine enough to securely fit into said groove.

Does anyone know how to get this damn thing off? I've searched far and wide but all I've found is an old thread on here that was less than helpful. Thanks in advance!

It took me quite a long time to be able to put mine on. Perhaps removal is the reverse? Maybe a tiny spring bar tool from Amazon may fit in there to be able to dislodge it. That’s all I can think of. Removal and installation definitely is not straightforward
