My BAD Experience With a Benchmade 940

[Brusiedmeat]

Some of 94x series are known for stop pin rattle. Pinch the scale near the stop pin see if goes away. I do not believe it's due to lose axis lock bar or loose pivot causing blade hitting liners. Check for rattling stop pin.

That sounds about right with the type of noise I was hearing.

I was not a fan of the handle so I sent them back before I tore them apart. In consideration of the price point, I was really not interested in looking for the issue as it was not purchased 2nd hand.
All the screws appeared to be seated but was not checked for torque.

Sorry to hear about it. I have/had 12 940/943, out of those 12 only 1 was rattling, & I still carry the rattler. I got used to it & no longer bothers me. But I hear ya. At the price point, it should be n.e.a.r perfect. Good day.

How's the 707 stack up to it?
