Gap in Peen?

[u/NameUser1000]

I recently received this Type 18c sword by Swordier and noticed that there’s a gap in the peen. It’s mostly on the one side but the other side has a slight gap too.

Should I be worried about this? It’s wide enough to fit a exacto blade through the gap. I’ll contact Swordier and see what they say but is this a normal amount of gap?

I think the gap in peen is uaully called 'urethra'. Ur welcome

That sounds like a reasonable request
