Custom Pocket Clips for MTs/Saks/Knives.
on: April 15, 2018, 08:41:56 AM
Pocket clips are useful, at least to a big number of us. Not everyone/everyday we can have a sheath on the belt.

I do not like to just drop things into the pocket. Doesn't quite like the feeling of things hanging and banging around loosely. That's the reason I do not wear boxers.. :P

I would think nothing is impossible with some creative thinking. Everyone may have a different approach to making things work. Lets see some ideas on custom pocket clip on tools.

I will start off with some when i can get to a computer.  :cheers:

I use this to keep it hanging in my pocket. As you can see in pic nr 2 it hardly shows, if ignoring the Vic lanyard I added. It also has a bottle opener, sidenote.

 Is found as "suspension clip" on Evilbay. Other suspension clips are to be find there too.

But if you want to add a proper clip on it then one cheap way to do it is to buy low grad quality folder knives on eBay. Sorry buy "buy now", "lowest price+ postage" and scroll around. The ones I find are around a dollar and three, which is a rather ok price for a clip.

Probably a better post how to go about it somewhere though. I'm sure I didn't figure it out myself!

Nice. I think I am going to get one of these. It looks really simple and minimalistic from outside the pocket,

Sam I love your clip mods,  :dd:
one of the basic feats for me in a tool or knife is a good pocket clip



and the Diesel, Rebar, Spirit and SOGs would be carried much more if they had a clip,  :ahhh
the ones I carry most are clippable ones (Wave, Surge and BlackTip/Blast with clip mod)



and those that are pocketable in size and can easily be hung via a pocket hanger, like the Rebar or MINI!  :ahhh



I definitely recommend the P7 clip and similar pieces that can be found for cheap on eBay   :salute:

My toys:

MTs: Surge (2x), Skeletool CX, Rebar, Blast, Fuse, Micra, Squirt (3x), Wave, Crunch, Mini, Spirit (2x), Pro Scout, MP700 (2x), Diesel, Powerlock, PowerPlier (2x), PocketPowerPlier, Blacktip , ST6 (2x), 5WR, A100

SAKs: Bantam, Executive, Ambassador, Minichamp, Classic Alox, Champion, Farmer, Explorer, Swisschamp, Golf Tool, Wenger Champ, EVO 52, Pocket Tool Chest

What's the clip on the Spirit Sam?  :think:

Workpro utility knife.

Some sort like this. It's used to be much cheaper..

I just discovered this thread while looking for DIY pocket clip ideas.



The clip came from a cheap Mossy Oak MT. I had to drill a hole in the handle for a metal nub on the clip to fit into. This prevents rotation.

Small clip added to my custom Juice. I really dig the minimal nature and the fact that it matches the finish of the stainless frame with the aluminum scales removed.

Looks great ! Can you show some side shots showing how the clip is attched to the juice please.
