I recently got a Recon 1 in OD Green with the CTS-XHP clip point blade. Today I noticed that it has a rattle sound when you shake the knife. It only happens when the blade is in any open position. When the blade is closed the rattle goes away. Upon inspection it looks like that silver colored pin that the blade rests on when closed may be loose and rattling when the blade is open? I don't know. Anyone else have this problem? All the screws are tight, and I bought the knife new from an authorized dealer. Thanks.
Edit: The blade has solid lock up in all directions. No play just this weird rattle.
 
I had the same problem on a Holdout 2 if I remember the right knife. I took it apart, put one small drop of superglue on the stop pin, and that was the end of the rattle.
 
Yeah, I recently experienced this on a Golden Eye. Opened it up and squeezed some grease in around the pin. No more rattle.
