Do I have a bent clutch pedal?

So I have had this problem ever since I bought the car 4-5 years ago. Clutch engagment is very tricky, and its as if it has this 1 point of engagement and anything before or after that would result jerking.
I have replace the whole drive train, so clutch/pressure plate is out of the question. I also replaced:

Clutch master cylinder (was leaking)
Clutch slave cylinder (had one kicking around so i Thought I give it a try)
All the springs and bushings on the pedal
Bled the system afew times as well.
Lubed the release fork

So the only thing left is the pedal itself! The problem is sort of weather related as well. When its cold, pedal is very hard to push. And when its hot, it squeeks (inside the car)

So could it be the damn pedal itself? Thanks.

That's an odd one...

sounds to me like the push rod and assist spring just need to be lubed/greased up. It could be really dry and fragile.

Yeah, and I think there's a spring, in the footwell drivers side obviously, try replacing that.
