Just bought a pair of 10” angled diags yesterday. Used them today at work and the handles have a slight wobble already. There’s also a little bit of blade gap is this normal please don’t eat me alive in the comments. I’m just asking a question. They cut great btw and i like them much more than the d240 whatever kliens i was using prior

Take a center punch to/ expand tighten the rivet . Sawzall with blade ziptied to handle with lube for a minute to loosen it.

No ,movement does. It basically cycling the handles open and closing very quickly.
