Ok so theres verticle blade play in the buck 110 that I have. The lockup is perfect. Its the silver bar on the back of the handle in between the 2 bronze bolsters. it wiggles as I wiggle the blade. so it locks up perfectly, its the whole lock itself that wiggles. do you guys know what Im talking about. how do I fix this? or is this a problem for buck knives warenty service? I want to show pictures to explain it better but idk how.
 
just wanted to add one little detail, you have to push up and down on the blade kinda hard to get it to wiggle. is this normal?
 
Well if you're getting significant play, then the lockup isn't "perfect." Very slight vertical play is normal in lockbacks, though.

Sounds pretty normal yes. It'll never happen on my Spyderco Delica and Endura, but Buck knives are constructed a little differently and can't be taken apart and put together by the average user. If it bothers you, you can e-mail Buck directly and ask them to adjust it.
