Has anyone taken their 0850 apart yet? Mine came with some blade play. It's SUPER smooth, smoother than my KVT knives, but it has some play.
I tried to loosen AND tighten the pivot, but it seems like it's loctited down pretty good. The whole pivot (both sides I mean) spin about 1/8 of a turn and then stop. So I think the pivot is keyed into a "D" shape, but I still can't get the pivot to budge.
Thinking I might need to apply some heat. But first, has anyone here adjusted their pivot or taken theirs apart?
Thanks!
Obligatory pic.

Can't quite justify adding the black wash version, but Whitty got me hooked on the original!
