 When you are disassembling an already assembled [[washer]] only balisong, make sure to note the orientation of each [[washer]] and reassemble everything exactly as it was.

Now drop the lower handle so that it touches your palm and pinch the blade between your index and thumb, but be careful not to cut yourself. The blade should be inside the channel of the handle that is higher up. Now shake the balisong forwards and backwards quickly. If you can feel the balisong rattling/moving, you have play. If you can hear a "clicking/tapping" sound, then you have [[tap]].
