I'm sorry to hear that. After nearly 2 years the knobs on K3 #222 are still
fine. I assembled it myself so I tightened the screws only just enough to
hold them and no more. But with all these reports one starts to wonder
whether it is only a matter of time before I too experience a failure.

I wonder how many people would be prepared to pay extra for a "luxury" set
of metal knobs that would avoid this issue once and for all? Perhaps
something like the knobs on the IC-7700. I think I'd go for it.
