I purchased an 810 Centego in August. After just three weeks of edc, it developed up and down blade play that was beyond excessive. I called Benchmade and the customer service rep could actually here it through the phone. So I sent it in.
I received it yesterday with a work order stating what was done (replaced axis lock bar, springs, oiled, sharpened) and it still has blade play. I was better than when I sent it in but after a day of use it's getting worse. I have a before video but haven't got around to shooting the post repair video.
This especially sucks because I was without my new favorite knife for almost a month and it looks like I'm gonna be sending it back 👎🏾
