Half Moon Rifle shop also makes some nice, tough allen head screws. I still think you can tighten slotted head screws with more "gusto" than you can allen head. Course...you just have to have a properly fitted blade!

Being a duffer, I have had success not lousing up slotted screw heads by using the proper size blade as noted above, and putting a small piece of duct tape on the tip.
