Benchmade blade play

[Sparky22]

My benchmade 4300 cla has lots of front to back rattle. If I wiggle the knife, I can hear it. Is there any way that I can fix this without sending my knife to benchmade? I think it might have something to do with the stop pin. I'm not sure.

Welcome! Only thing I can think of is to disassemble(providing you have the tools and skills, which I don't know how hard it is to takedown an auto) the knife and rotate the stop pin and reassemble.

You'd get a better answer over in the Benchmade area; https://bladeforums.com/forums/benchmade-knife-company.893/

My advice is to send it in. It sucks to have to do it, I'm sending in both my 940 and 556 today, but they'll get it down right.

Unfortunately, your knife issues aren't uncommon with Benchmade anymore. You are better off sending it in, contact Benchmade and they will pay for shipping both ways.

You may have a loose frame or pivot screw. First step is always to make sure the screws are tight.
