Default Striker or Tekan?

I am thinking of trying the Striker or Tekan this year, I know lots of people have great things to say about the striker, but i am curious about blade retention. For some reason my arrows are fletched to the left (came like that from the factory), and I lost a blade in a broadhead once. I think it was because the head relied on the ferrule being screwed into the arrow to hold the blades in. With fletching offset to the left I think the arrow slightly unscrewed itself on impact, so I am leary of this happening again. Does the striker rely on the arrow to keep the blades in place?

Also the does anyone have any accounts of the blades not opening up or the blades opening in flight for the tekan?
