Common root cause: The handle attachment may have loosened slightly due to impact or improper use.
Step-by-step solution: Hold the knife and check for any visible screws at the handle-blade junction. If present, use a compatible screwdriver to gently tighten them. If no screw is visible, the issue may be more complex and require warranty assessment.
💡 Pro tip: Avoid using the knife as a lever or striking the handle against surfaces, as this can compromise blade attachment.
