I just bought a brand new Buck 110 Pro. This is my 3rd 110. Gave my first as a gift, the second was a custom shop piece that I sold years ago. I've always missed it, so I bought a 110 Pro in S30V. The blade is amazing, but I have some issues I'm hoping can be fixed.

When closed, the blade is so off center that it touches the non show side liner. If I'm not careful, it scrapes when I open it.

The blade has very loose play when closed. I can barely touch it, and it wiggles back and forth in the handle.

When open, lock up us solid, but there is noticeable side to side play.

To be honest, it's driving me nuts. I really love this knife, but all I can think about when I use it is how poorly the blade is fit in the handle. Is there any way for me to fix this? There is no accessible hardware, so I have no idea how to fix it. I wouldn't care if it were just a bit off center, but it's laying against the liner and jiggles like a rattle when closed.

If I send it in, can they fix it?
