Mine's perfect (grinds, centering, coating, etc.) The only thing that could be better would be a sharper factory edge, but this will be a user so no big deal.

Redka, if that bothers you call them and send it up, I did that and asked for barrel spacers instead which was no problem for them to do. A bunch of us had that problem and they're aware of it so it's fully covered under warranty.

Ive had 7 or 8 710,s pass through my hands and all of them were well centered , the only issue I had with the 710 , was the crummy back spacers used (they were crooked) barrel spacers fixed that problem Cool

One of my 806's has an off center blade and the coating on the blade is rubbed off in one spot. The store I bought it from had it on display for a day or two so It could have come from handling. I just figured I would carry that one, it makes it a little easier to put it into EDC rotation when its already scuffed IMO
