A thought on blade play

[Durwood]

ditto to elliot.when checking hold the blade at base not by the tip.i,ve seen guys actually bend the blade to check for wiggle , sometimes people actually created play by severe pressure.on some knives like my cuda maxx i do'nt give it a 2nd thought but on a 700$ custom i would expect more.

I got a two blade knife back once that the buyer had literally torqued one of the blades so much that it pulled the pivot pin and bent the center liner

I'm just going to read the posts in this thread and not make any comments on this 485th thread on "blade play".

...actually, I just pulled that number out of somewhere.

and speaking of making up numbers, did you know that 85% of the people that quote statistics make them up.

I thought it was 86%...
