Received my Vantage Pro Small today and immediately sent it back to Buck

I have bought three small Vantages in the last 2 years. None of the three are centered, but I can get all three to be smooth by loosening the pivot screw to the point where the blade is almost touching the liner but not quite. For me that's ok since it doesn't cause any issues. However the last two that I bought about 3 months ago both had lockup issues where the liner lock would not come out far enough on the blade to lock it in really good. That definitely worries me. Rather than sending them back I took the knives apart and filed down the liner lock and then put them back together. They both lockup very solid now and apparently I must have done something right because they are both much smoother now as well. However I am disappointed with the torx screws they are using, they must be getting them from China, because they are very soft and strip out very easily.
