That would bug me but mine has the gap and it does not bug me(much)so it is very personal. I am sure Dan would fix it but please wait until after the bowie ships if you want to return it. I am a hobbyist knifemaker and have a heck of a time with plunge cuts. My grinder is a 1 inch which does not help.
