Hey guys i just got my new limited grip in but the blade is off center and its really stiff. Any tips on recentering the blade and making it smoother?

I tried adjusting the pivot screw but it does not move the blade.
 
I would just send it to BM for a free tune up.
There CS is 2nd to none. Best out there.

Mine is the same, except it's smooth. Is it broken in yet? Mine took awhile to break in

debatable
 
It's getting smoother as i break it in, but the blade is still off center despite my pivot screw adjustments maybe i have to send it in after all...
 
I had the same issue on a Barrage and they replaced the blade.

Send it in. I know it sucks but they'll make it right.
 
Mine is pretty well centered, and smooth. (274/750) My two Contegos came a little off center though.

yeah, its not breaking in well either it feels really gritty and almost takes two hands to open so I guess I have no choice but it send it in.
 
Loosen the first screw (on each side) behind the axis lock button (holds the covers on). Just loosen them (don't remove them) and then make your adjustments to center the blade with the pivot screw and then retighten the cover screws. Just snug the cover screws down - don't crank them down hard. Use blue loctite on the screws - pivot screw too. Oil your joint and lube your axis lock bar.
