should the blade and rubber piece that the blade is attached to be loose?

It sounds defective. My mother board failed and I was unable to contact the company. It was out of warranty, but I really hadn't used it much. So now I have a new jar and a kaput blender.

no, it should be tightly sealed. On my original jar that is 10 yeas old, the rubber piece is cracking but neither it nor the blade is loose!

I'm not sure I understand your question. The blade is loose enough to be free-spinning.

There is a small metal tab inside the slot where the blade folds into. Press against the tab to make room for the blade to slide in.

I've been using the Lenox Gold titanium edge blade and it fits snugly with no wobble at all. Make sure the blade is seated correctly and then tighten the retaining screw sufficiently (tight). It's possible there is some manufacturing tolerance that can cause some blades to not fit well.

No problems at all. You have to be sure the bit has been chucked properly or this will definitely make it loosen. Also if the bit is even slightly bent, it will come loose.

Yeah, pull the blade off first and it only seems to come off in one direction. Love mine!

NOT GOOD IDEA. Blades are made of some type of composite material with a laminate over them . On one of my blades the laminate was loose and I re glued it.

This knife is not likely to come loose, but i'm not a surfer either. you get thick rubber straps that don't budge even when the ocean is kicking up quite a bit. the knife snaps into its holster and won't release unless you push on it with your thumb. you should work with that to make certain you are used to using it in the ocean. should be exactly what you want.

The bolts that secure the blades together may have been screwed on too tight.

No, the system is basically a spring that forces the blade into pins that hold it in place. If you remove any part of the system, the blade will fall off the pins.

Fairly so after a wile it gets loose but never to the point where the knife is just falling out

I would say yes even tho I've never tryed and no longer have it to confirm. Theirs a star like screw near the blade which I assume is used to tighten it but not sure. I like to add I did like the knife.

Also, we noticed on ours that there is a trim piece at the opening of the scabbard that had come loose, and had to glue that back on...it is cut to fit the sword exactly, so I wouldn't worry too much about yanking it out, if that comes off it can be glued right back on...also the hilt on ours is a little loose, as others here have reported, but haven't had problems with it coming off etc...seems to be on ok despite that.

No. As long as it is in good shape. I replaced the blade assembly but not the nut.

Well, that didn't happen to me, so I can only guess. Maybe the sheath heated and cooled during transport and has trapped the knife.Or something was jammed into the sheath when the knife was inserted at the factory.My knife slides loose after a firm tug on the strap or handle.Sorry I don't know more.Maybe a call/Email to CRKT might help.www.CRKT.com

Probably not, since metal blade is fixed in plastic holder. I suppose the plastic in front of the blade could be filed down or broken off.....not sure if worth it, or if safe.

I don't have that problem. Mine works fine. Remove the blade and see if anything is loose or a stone got in
