Interesting, my Leica filters are just fine after little over a year and a 
half, and they seem plenty strong enough to me.  I have a 49 mm Leica filter 
clamped in the hood of my 35 Summilux and it takes a bit of a beating quite 
often, and the other is mounted on my 50 Summicron and no scratches on 
either.
