Kai Wee,

The fit is perfect but because of the dry climate up here the blades often get stuck when I press them all the way down
This means that I sometimes even have to remove the hilts to pull them out.
So that's why I let them stick out a bit.

Oh I see! Which brings me to another point - remember to oil the sheath and hilts once in a while! Some kerises' hilts and sheaths crack while they were in Europe or other dryer climates...

dry climate up here
Isn't it more a matter of central heating / isolated houses

Maybe a combo?
Where I live, unlike Holland, it's both quite dry and the houses are well isolated.
