You're not the only one. This is the flaw I see on my Bismarck that I recently got today. And I've found a few pics through Google with Bismarck's also having this 'flaw'...and there's a couple of notches not perfectly spaced apart.
Did you do anything with yours? (ie. return/exchange it?)
I'm thinking that I'll simply convince myself that the razor was handmade and this is part of the beauty (?)
