Screw on GB Won't screw in!

[amroc]

The left most screw on my clip won't screw in. I was tightening it back down after playing with different pocket carries on it, and it screwed in, and then released. It drops into the hole now, but comes straight up and down. It feels like the female part is stripped! Any suggestions? The clip holds, it feels like, with the other two screws, but it is annoying only having two.

thanks!

EDIT: I'm taking it down directly to the SFO in a week. Luckily I've got enough other knives to carry till then. Also, I may end up with another knife. Few Spydies I want to look at.

maybe you should take the other two out, and ease all three in instead of having the first two down all the way. that is what i would do.

Side note: Wow, their repair department is FAST! I sent an email to the, about... 15 min ago. Got a response back. I'm going to ship it to them, or possibly just wait and head down on the first (I live an hour a way and I'll be near Golden anyway)

Found the problem looking at it more. The screw broke. Inside the liner....
