Thread: Manufacturers defect on new dovo?

So my new Dovo's blade, when closed, comes dangerously close to scraping the inside of the scales. the shank(or is it tang) is set evenly between the pin, but when you look down it like a rifle barrel, you can see that the entire blade is shifted just a millimeter or two off center, just barely missing the scales.

Suggestions?

From a noob...

If it's not causing a problem, just enjoy your razor! If a problem develops later you'd have to address, but I don't see a point worrying if there's not an immediate issue.

Again, that's just my opinion and I've been known to be wrong once or twice.

It is a judgement you have to make, whether to complain about it to whoever you bought it from or if you wanna fix it yourself.

It's really no big deal to fix it yourself.

The wiki has an article about how to fix this and related issues which I think is pretty good!

well I'll tell you, I hate having to think about scraping my blade every time I close my razor. It even scraped once, because I accidentally put some side pressure on when closing it. But hey, I had no idea there was a wiki to fix that problem! I'm gonna check it out now, thanks!

ok, there is no way i can find that particular info in the wiki, its like searching through an encyclopedia that's not in alphabetical order. Care to post a link for me?

I thought I just did.
Didn't my hyperlinked "Link" lead you to the article "centering blades"?

I just tried clicking it, and I was taken directly there..

I agree, if it's not causing a problem don't worry about it!
