Is it possible to right a slightly off-centered blade with manual tools? I have a DPx Heat with a G10 scale whose I noticed was slightly off-centered. I took apart the knife to clean and lubricate it and the problem remains. I noticed that the more I tighten the pivot screw the more off-centered it becomes and the more I loosen the closer to centered it gets. Loosening it too much obviously leads to some blade play. The blade does not rub but is closer to the titanium scale.
 
I use this method, except with a wad of folded paper instead of an allen wrench wedged between blade and frame. :thumbup:

Great, thanks. I'll try it tonight if I get a chance.
