    These sound like either the Dovo or the TI scales????

    You need to check the Razor itself for a bent /twisted/uneven tang

    You have to have the razor out anyway for the fix so check it while it is out, anyone who rescales should do this first anyway..

    Lay the razor on a flat surface, place a finger on top of the tang and push it flat look at the spine in relation to the surface...
    Turn it over do the same and look again, this will show really quickly whether the tang is off or the spine is twisted..

    You also can sight down the razor while it is in the scales to check but it is hard to decide if the problem is the scales or the razor, much easier to check every razor before you pin them...

    At the top of this forum is a sticky... http://straightrazorpalace.com/works...wers-here.html

    In that sticky are several methods to fix this, I am still looking for the fantastic drawing that Chalie/spazola did for the easiest fix which is filing the inside of the scales to adjust the fit of the razor in there...

    You state the blade pushes firmley against one side,is it at the tang?is it pushing the blade to the other side at the tip?
    Mabey relieve the inside a tiny bit were/If the tang is rubbing with a popsicle stick and fine sandpaper,just a thought.
