Hey buck fans. I bought a new 373 mini stockman with bone handles a few months ago. I carried the knife in my edc rotation since, then stopped carrying it for a while. So, I picked it up to carry yesterday, and discovered the sheepsfoot blade had a horrible wobble. I'm talking like a solid 2mm maybe. It definitely wasn't like that before, and I don't remember beating on it that hard. Has anyone seen this before? Any idea if it can be fixed?
 
I have had that happen when I used the knife hard. A cloth and a small ball peen hammer on the pin will fix it up (gently). Or, a good vice (gently).
 
If it gets to Tight you can use a thin razor blade and hammer to losing it a bit by bang it in the side like a wedge
