New Large Sebenza not very smooth, having a hard time adjusting the pivot.

[marthinus]

I would advise you to have a look at the sticky in the forum about cleaning the sebenza and taking it apart, the reason is: so you can see that the Sebenza uses a bushing system so that no matter how tight the pivot is once the knife is broken in (it does become smoother over time because the stone wash finish becomes a mirror finish from opening and closing numerous times under the washers) the action will remain perfect.
