I've been shaving with my Merkur Futur for about 6 months now. After about two weeks, I noticed what appeared to be uneven blade exposure on each side. I thought I was seeing things but today I was able to confirm it. The audio feedback on the side with what appears to be a tiny amount more blade exposure is considerably louder than the other side, which results in a more mild shave.
There doesn't appear to be a difference in blade gap on each side, but just exposure. Just this second I determined the reason. After placing the blade in the bed and snapping in the top cap, if I take my fingernail and place it against the sharp edge of the side of the blade, I'm able to move the blade ever so slightly with a light nudge.
Has anyone else experienced this?
