Is the wobbling felt when holding the wooden handle of the ravioli cutter normal?

The Ottinetti ravioli cutter is used by wrapping your hand around the wooden handle and pressing down on the dough. Products featuring a solid wood handle, such as the Flower, Stella, and Triangle cutters, may wobble slightly due to a gap where the handle and the body connect^[1][2][3].

It is not defective. This phenomenon stems from the joining method and material characteristics, and it does not constitute a reason for exchange or return due to product defects^[4]. Generally, when mating dissimilar materials with different degrees of contraction and expansion, such as wood and metal, a slight gap is left at the joint to prevent damage and withstand environmental changes. When cutting dough by pressing straight down vertically with steady pressure from top to bottom, the wobbling is naturally absorbed and force is applied uniformly along the edge.
