"Zero Blade Play" Production Folders

I've had very few folders that exhibited vertical blade play. I guess I've been lucky.

As far as horizontal blade play goes, the only folder of mine without any play is the Sebenza.
 
My Spydie Native 3 has zero blade play, same with the Military and the Dodo that have passed through my collection...
 
Of all my 35+ Spyderco's, my Military/SE, SS Cricket/SE and Scorpius/SE are the only knives I didn't have to tinker around with to correct the blade play. They're still rock solid. :thumbup:
I recently bought a SS Police/SE which is rock solid. I'm curious how long it wil stay that way :confused:
 
mini skirmish.....rock solid...rock solid...rock solid
timberline envoy.....rock solid
timberline med wortac.....rock solid
caly jr ZDP........rock solid (but my other one has developed a little vert click
native....a little just because the frn i believe
adventura.......rock solid......a little vertical though...not much
 
My Ka-Bar Mule is built like a tank, it has got aboslutely zero blade play, and due to the design I feel confident in saying it won't develop any for years to come, and if it does it won't be noticeable. Unfortunately, it's about the only folder I have that I can say that about.
 
The BM 610 Rukus I have, which is an axis lock, has no play in any direction. I attribute that to the knife being overbuilt, along with precision cut parts. I did use it to split a small diameter portion of limb, about 3" diameter and 12" in length. Had to use another piece, about the same as the piece I split, to baton the blade through. The only result was some resin on the blade which came right off with a little acetone. Bladeplay was at the same point as before the splitting.......absolutely zero. A limited edition BM balisong, the one with zen pins, is the only other knife I have that has no bladeplay in any direction. I'm expecting the Bradley Mayhem bali I have coming next week will also exhibit no blade play.:thumbup: :) :)
