Blade centering on a BM 550.

I've had the Griptilian for a couple of weeks now, and I'm fairly happy with it. However, when closed, the blade is not centered within the handle, and when opened, it tends to scrape the side of the handle.

I've tightened and loosened the pivot, and it's done nothing to help the scraping (of course, I don't have much experience with Axis locks, this being my first). Some help would be much appreciated. *If* I can get the blade centered, it'll be quite a nice knife for EDC.

Edit: :rolleyes: I can't spell.
 
Crossed my mind, but, I live in Japan. Kinda far to ship...costs $10-$15 just for shipping one way. Sometimes even more.

So, yeah...looking for a self-fix. Thanks anyway.
