I added a pocket clip to my Pulse!!

Gadget Guy · **on:** April 01, 2010, 08:22:59 AM

I decided to add a pocket clip to my LM Pulse. I have been edc'ing the Pulse for about a week and I really love it, but it was crying out for a pocket clip. I got the idea from this thread:

http://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,17405.0.html

I had to modify the base plate of the clipdraw a bit to make it fit the Pulse, but I think it works great! Here is the finished product:

That looks good John

I put a LM knife pocket clip on one of my Pulse's . I hope I can finish my Pulse mods in the next couple of weeks.
I like the Pulse the best out of all the retired LM's.

I like the fact that the clipdraw doesn't void the warrantee. But at the same time it sacrifices the streamline look of a regular pocket clip, as well as adding like 2mm more bulk.

DECISIONS

I personally go for more permanent mods unless of course it is retired/discontinued or a heavy user that requires a good solid warrantee. All my opinion...

nice mod though Gadget Guy.

Is Gadgetguy35 your brother?

I like both of them

I wish LM would offer the pocket clip on more models but at least they are on some of them

ive seen one but no money mate, and TBH the pst i carry is useful to me as a good user tool , as this is the one from chris and has later pliers on a late 80's main parts, so i think a clip would go well on this more individual pst

Well... This didn't work out as I had hoped. The tool is very unbalanced when clipped to my pocket. I would have to say pass if you're thinking of adding a pocket clip to your Pulse.

Try using TWO clipdraws - one on each handle?

Bob, its unbalanced from top to bottom so two clips won't help. This clip might be too long for this tool. I'm going to try a shorter clip.

Ah, I see. $:-\$ Good luck to you on the shorter clip idea then!

jzmtl · **Reply #14 on:** April 04, 2010, 02:02:20 AM

Flip the clip around for "tip up" carry, that may work.

I took the clip off. The balance just wasn't right. $:-\$

nelly1974 · **Reply #17 on:** May 29, 2010, 06:34:42 AM

Did you try (as some one here suggested) to put the clip on the other side of the tool? I am asking because, since I got my cool spirit with clip from you, I thought on doing this to my pulse as well.
Thanks

No, I just feel the tool is too floppy for my liking.
