This is with the pivot completely cranked down. No blade play. When I got this off the swap the action was good but there was blade play. Cleaning didn’t do the trick so I refitted the washer-bushing-pivot system. Now the action is incredible. People love to compare this thing to the Para 3, but I will say throughout the years more than a dozen have passed through my hands and try as I might I could never get any of them to be perfect like a Sage (pivot fully cranked down with perfect action, perfect centering, no blade play at all). I always had to fiddle with the pivot screw on the Para 3s and even when the action was perfect there was blade play if you flexed hard enough. Not on this.
