I just purchased a brand new Case/Ruger Medium Stockman Burnt Honey bone. All of the blades are nice and tight, except for the sheepsfoot, which has a slight play when you try and move the blade. Is there any way I can tighten this blade myself? Could I pay someone to fix it? Is it even worth worrying about? Also, I just ordered a #40 Eriksson Mora, it has a plain birch handle, SS Blade, and crossguard. Are there any reviews on this knife? Thanks. -Andrew
 
There was s thread on slipjoint repairs In the embellishment forum. You can hammer the bolster on that side, carefully. IF the clip and sheepsfoot are on the same side, It may be a problem.
 
I own several Eriksson knives and for the $$$ there isn't a better knife out there IMO. Traditional designs that has passed the test for much longer than many of todays "mall ninja" survival knives. Good steel (especially for the price) and they hold up very well to outdoor activities.
