Title: Kick with pocket clip
Post by: prime77 on October 25, 2006, 10:05:47 AM: I got the pocket clip for the Kick this morning in the mail and carried for the day. It works good. Does anyone know what the hole in the clip is for? I noticed the SideClip has the same hole in it's clip. Is it for a small laynard ring?

It has it in the bottom of the multitool, the part that opens, unlike the sideclip, which has it on the top. Whenever I had the clip on my wave, and wore it, it would open in my pocket so that I would have the tool i the shape of an L in my pocket. Why can't LM put it on the top side? That way, no matter how loose your tool, it won't open?

I can easily swivel it from side to side by about a 1/4" before the tab stops it. The pins are what actually allows it to move that little bit, even after I tried tightening them. Oh well, it still works, so I guess it's just one of those minor annoyances. :-\
