I was moving my pocket clip, and when I went to screw in the screw the screw just kept rotating, and not tightening. Neither the screw, nor handle is stripped, because I can tighten the screw without the pocket clip, but when I try it with the clip it doesn't work. What do you suggest that I do?

It sounds to me like the top half of the threads (in the liner) are striped and the bottom half are fine...so when you screw it in without the clip the scew is long enough to reach the (non) stripped threads, but when the clip is on it can't reach the (un) stripped threads.

short of finding a longer screw, the best option IMO would be to just send it into spyderco and they'll fix it!

But it doesn't work anywhere else on the knife either. Not even on the left side, where it's never been before. Except for one screw. That one seems to work
But the longer screw idea worked. I just got to ask kershaw for some more Scallion pivot screws :D
