Sage 3 rattle problem

[bbpatrick]

Just got a sage 3 a couple days ago and I have been very impressed with the over all quality of the knife. Then today I noticed a slight rattle when the blade is open (no problem when it's closed). I'm not sure where it is coming from I've tried to look inside but everything looks tight to me. Also, I'm not sure if it has been like this and I am just now noticing it or if it is something that has developed in the few days I've had it.

Wondering if anybody that has a sage 3 could tell me if the rattling is common on all of the sage 3's, and I just have to live with it, or is it just mine.

Finally I'm new to the forum and this is my first post! Thanks for the help in advance.

No rattle in mine unless I open it in slow motion and shake it like my asthma inhaler. Then I get a very soft clicking/ticking.

Mine is tight, no rattle.

No rattle in mine. Only noise I notice is when opening it the lock button ticks backward a bit making a little click noise, but that's all.

Thanks everyone for the replies. The rattling for what ever reason has died down a bit and is only making the noise some of the time now... kinda strange (hopefully it will magically disappear next lol). Fortunately everything on the knife is locking up tight and it seems very solid overall so im not going to worry about it. Regardless, the rattle is subtle and i'm being a little nit picky, i absolutely love the sage 3, i think the quality is phenomenal and for me it is a perfectly designed EDC. Looking forward to many years of use with the sage 3!
