Hi,

So I noticed that one of my props is a little harder to thread onto the motors than most.

Most of the props I just set them lightly onto the motors and spin them. The one in question doesn't spin smoothly until I budge them a bit, like the threads aren't engaging as easily. Is this normal, or should I avoid using that prop?

I don't, it's just that prop.

Sounds good. Better safe than sorry - it's not like props are that expensive.

Mine was like that brand new.  Never a problem with it.  I rarely remove props either.

It's completely normal with the composite hubs.
Some props are just like that - but it's not a sign of a problem.

Ya, I'm starting to think I was just being overly paranoid. Plastic threads aren't always going to be free of defects. Could just be a small burr of sorts.
