Anyone having problems with stripping?

[MrFishead]

Looks like I'll be sending my R.A.M. and Shallot off for warranty service. Those two and my blem R.A.M. have the stripped screws. Is this common? I managed to take my Leek apart and didn't even come close to stripping those. This seems a bit rediculous to me, so is it me or the screws? Used the T-tool Kershaw sent me for this by the way.

They could just be stuck because of the loctite. Try heating up the screws with a blow dryer and then try to unscrew.

The torx bits I tried wouldn't catch the screws to even try to turn the screw. I tried using it on the other screws on the knife and it fit. Don't know if heating it up will make the bit catch but it would be nice, I'd love to start carrying my red R.A.M. but need to take the scales off :\

Ya it happens to me all the time. its the locktite. but kershaw is happy to send new screws or even work on the knife itself with no charge for service or even for shipping. So im fine with it. it does get annoying tho. lol.
