Quoted from ezeltmann:

This is 100% real and if you are really wanting to check up on it , call rock fantasy and ask to speak to the owner. He will be slight amused if you think if he is new to the hobby.
A player in the recent tournament showed me the bandaid he brought in case he had to play the game. This is about receiving a product with DEFECTIVE unfinished parts.
A machine in a commercial location that as injuring people because of a fuck up at the factory isn't something that should be shrugged off as someone whining about not receiving a perfect product. Not one edge was finished at the factory = defective. There are some who are comfortable with performing what would seem like easy tasks to you and others who are not.
I do think he should have had the foresight to cover and or dremel to remove this edge. Still i think it's absurd to deliver a product with obviously dangerous edges and they tell the customer to finish the part themselves. The warning is for those that agree with this.
