Is your pivot adjusted properly? Is your knife assembled correctly?
I had a 3" that did the same thing. I emailed Rob and mailed the knife in. They fixed it and mailed it back out in one day. It even came back sharper than before. I am not sure what the problem was (latest generation and bought direct) but they fixed it just fine.
I think it was the blade though, because the same standoff were left on the knife. I am guessing they re-ground the blade shorter or replaced it completely.
I think at this point you should probably get ahold of Rob Orlando at Rick Hinderer Knives.

I'm not sure if he's working tomorrow or not but Monday for sure.
I find this interesting. As I read this thread, bells are going off. Ive had a tiny nick in the blade of my 3" spanto pretty much since a few days old. I bought direct in june '14. I just assumed it was from use as i am not easy on it. I touch her up on the sharpmaker, yet it just re-appears in the same spot. I just took a much closer look at the standoffs and there is a definite clearance issue. Ill be contacting Rob once everyone is settled from the holidays
