Are Emerson clips generally reversible?

I've always found waved knives work best for me if I clip them with the wave facing forward in my pocket, which means using what would typically be the "lefty" clip position. I know the regular karambits have holes drilled to accommodate this clip switch, do the Super Karambits? How about the Super CQC-8 and the CQC-15?
 
i have a 1999 cqc7 that is tapped for tip up or tip down, but right hand only.

all my other emersons, except the kerambit, are right hand tip up only (8, 13, persian).
 
EKIs are generally not tapped for clip mounting on either side.
You will have to drill and tap the holes your self or get someone to do it.
 
I also carry many of my waved knives this way. That's my preferred draw and I'm a big fan of reverse grip, edge out. Nice to see someone else does too. The only one that comes tapped on both sides is the karambits. I have my main carry (Super CQC7) set up that way, among other things. Same with my waved and double edged Police. Also had my Darrel Ralph switched for a forward draw reverse grip opening.
