Please forgive my incorrect terminology here...

I just received a mostly perfect goldedge i bought on ebay; aside from a couple tiny spots on the blade and some sort of close to the edge (hmmm), it's perfect. While the scales are quite tight when the blade is in the range required for shaving, they are loose when the blade concealed. In other words, I can see cutting my finger while handling this razor. Is there a quick and easy way to make it more sticky without taking the razor apart?

Thanks in advance!
