    As far as I know the blade exposure should be the same on both sides. I have two of them and the blade sits evenly on both.

    Something is off then, those shoulders on the base plate do hold a blade with no wiggle so the cap is probably the culprit then. Shaves fine otherwise on the side with more blade exposure. I haven't used the other side yet.
