This solution is a little more radical, but it’s worked for me on three different liner lock knives. Look at the tip of the blade. Now imagine how you could curve the knife like a banana to center the tip. Take the knife apart, and CAREFULLY bend one or both liners in the required direction (maybe start with the nonlock side first). Bend a little at a time (1/4 millimeter maybe) and reassemble often to check centering. You don’t want to go too far, and you don’t want to kink the liner. Like I said, I’ve done this with three knives to correct centering by very small amounts. It’s also possible in principle to do this on a liner lock, but slabs are way stronger than liners. If the correction is small, it’s undetectable. A large correction would probably result in a noticeable gap between liner and scale.
