Bill, I'm trying to fix blade peek on a Mikov that I'm putting scales on. What would be best fix ? Here are some pics. Excuse the finish still a lot of hand sanding and polishing to go. Thanks in advance for any help or comments.

The pivot pin needs to fit all the holes exactly-very tight, and the pivot needs to be peened tightly.
You can also retip the blade slightly.

Re: Fixing blade peek on Mikov
Are these that prone to exhibit "peeking"? Is it loose tolerances that cause this phenomenon?
