Forum Vesuvius - Need advice

[gadgetaddict]

I received my new Forum Vesuvius, and I'd love to make it my work EDC. Can anyone share their experiences.

Also, the blade has some side-to-side play when open, if I tighten it, it becomes difficult to open. Was anyone able to adjust so it's balanced (smooth and no play).



The point above the hole is sharp. Can I grind it down? If yes, how?



Thanks in advance,

Just got a pair,and one's going into EDC rotation. They're pretty much the same as my blue inlay CE;the locks just work harder. Didn't notice any bad play in mine. How much movement do you have? Unfortunately,they're seconds,so if there is something wrong Spyderco won't touch it. If you can't get it adjusted properly,you might be able to get someone who works on knives to swap out the washers and maybe fix it.

Oh,forgot,what point above the hole? Do you mean the base of the blade? If there's a sharp edge there,you should just be able to touch it w/a file to smooth it.
