I need two, very small screws.

They are 5mm long, with a pointed end (1mm), and no head to speak of; just a slot cut into the top of the shaft. The top face is however very well finished. It is about 2.5mm dia.

It's used to hold a belt to a belt buckle.

Thanks.

either in a real tool shop but buying two may be difficult. It sounds like the type of screw you get in plug fitting to hold the cables tight. The alternative is to find something in the garage, make it fit and then file it down. The multitude of different threads will also be an potential issue.

Excellent. I have the proper name.

ETA: Ordered from some place in the Midlands specialising in Moto Guzzi parts of all things!
