Good thinking with the loctite on the pocket clip screws. I found that was the way to go early on. You guys may be way ahead of me but I use three types of "Loctite" around here. Blue (medium)and red (hardest hold) of course but when I need something to hold that can be easily undone, I use clear nail polish (with nylon) for the lightest hold. This will work on firearms screws too if light additional gripping is needed. Use a cue-tip and acetone to de-grease the threads first. Boy have I had it from TR for telling you I have nail polish in the shop. It was Al Mar who introduced me to Col. Rex Applegate in 1984. Col. Applegate lived 60 miles from here and every delivery I made to him for 14 years was in person. This is how I got my start building knives for guys in the Special Operations community. This is also where I learned to have profound respect for those who do the job. Those old A/F fixed blades bring back memories. I still make a few of those. Bill
