Anikan blade pin problem

Are you pounding the other side into the table?
Once it starts coming out the other side, try pulling on it with a pair of plyers.
wrong pin. im talking about on the actual blade itself, the one tha doesnt come out the other side, it just goes inside of it then you take it out when you pull the base with the electronics, that i assume are attached the led's out.
You can try drilling a small hole on either side of the pin and pull it out with needle nose pliers.
is the blade in a vice? it needs to be secure or the energy won't go into the pin, only the whole blade thus the bouncing
make sure you have a small enough punch-i just use the smallest flathead screwdriver from those sets at the store because i never have any other use for it

Maul that is downright reckless advice. I am all for you doing something boneheaded but don't recommened it to someone else.
Use a punch! That is what they are made for. Using a precision screwdriver as a punch is asking to receive a serious injury.

how is it reckless james, it won't break or anything, it just bends a little if you hit it wrong

In general use a tool what it's meant for. Tools have their own risks using them, you don't need to add to it by not using the proper tool.

ok im having some problems with that inner blade pin too. Other than drilling like DO-Clo said or the incoherent ramblings that followed, are there any other suggestions?
