I picked up an Emerson designed Gerber in 154CM and noted some CRAZY radial blade play.
While taking it apart to see what size coil spring I needed and for some basic cleaning I noticed the stop pin is a cam design, or an ellipsis, whatever, I adjusted it after putting the knife back together and there is now NO blade play.
Seems like a screw on one side turns the stop pin and the screw on the other side of the stop pin sets the stop pin in place.
I hadn't seen this before, so I thought I'd share, I also removed the safety plunger while doing this.
