Uneven angle bevels?!

I've tried doing a search on this subject but have found nothing on point. I've only recently began sharpening my folders (only got into knives about a year ago) on a sharpmaker I picked up on recommendation of other members on this forum, and have noticed that my PM2 and Tenacious have uneven bevel angles. After doing the marker test I found one side is cut at 15 and the other at 20. Is this common/standard on spydercos or is this user error? I've gotten around this by just using both sides of the sharpmaker, but just wondering if I'm doing something wrong. Thanks.
 
They're all sharpened by hand in the factory and as such there may be some degree of variation. My CruWear Manix is like that, but it will sort itself out with enough sharpenings and as such it doesn't bother me at all.
