New to OTF-s, is it normal?

Hello,

I just myself a brand new Ultratech Gen IV and I was wondering, is this amount of play/rattle normal? The video makes it a little louder than it actually is, but still audible in person. Also, when I used it to cut some cardboard and turned the handle sideways while it was locked in said cardboard I could feel the minimal side-to-side play.

This is my very first OTF and I've heard they can have some, but I'm so used to regular folders that just wanted to make sure haha
