A lot easier than the Swisstool Spirit, on the PPP's all you have to do is clip off the back of a LM clip . remove the hex screw, slide the pocketclip on and reinstall the hex screw. DONE

That looks pretty neat. I might give that one a go when my Pocketplier arrives!

That looks good

, what sort of LM clip is that?

I loke it. Do you get a lot of wiggle out of it? or is it tight?

It's the removable pocket clip for the Charge/Wave/SURGE tools.. He cut off the back of the clip..

Does it wiggle?

No free play at all, you cut the clip off so it rests against one of the square sides of the hex screw , tighten it from the other side of the tool and the clip stays in place, no wiggle at all.

Leatherman clip used for the MOD

Leatherman 934850 Removable Pocket Clip used with the New Wave, Charge Ti, and Charge XTi multi-tools. The lanyard ring is a replacement or added option for Leatherman multi-tools.

Looks great. I did the same thing with a Leatherman Skeletool clip. It rotated to easily though. I had to put a spot of weld to keep it from swiveling. Yours is nicely done!

Very professional job there Andrew!

Say, why is it that no plier-multitool maker except Leatherman offers a pocket clip model?

kodiak5 · **Reply #13 on:** January 11, 2009, 09:39:51 PM

I don't know why others don't offer clips. I never use a sheath so I'm always welding or screwing a clip on my multitools. It reduces resale so I'm stuck with allthese tool that you can tell I welded a clip to it at one time. It's just ridiculous!

1. That is the #1 question to ask SOG when I go to ShotShow 2009 this week with Def. and Mikey

2. MY all time favorite MT with a pocket clip !!!

I would love to see a toolclip again. It was a tool I always kicked myself for not getting.

Finally got off my butt and did this mod, pretty easy and work good too!

Yet another reason to admire Leatherman.

A couple of non-leatherman tools have pocket clips now. Gerber Octane and Crucial come to mind.
