Titan had emailed me on this subject, so i thought i'd better post it. His question was regarding the availibility on black clips for the Military, Starmate (my favorite knife of late), & our soon to be released "Native Chief" (or whatever we decide to call it). As i recall in an earlier thread about a month ago, Sal had satted that will we will eventually make black clips for the C35 & C55, they will not be available anytime soon. Regarding the Native... All the proto's had silver clips, & because of the width of the handle, the black clips used for our lighweight knives are too narrow to use. Currently we have no plans to make a black clip for the Native... (when i talk w/ sal today, i'll know more). I will keep all of you posted. If you haven't yet, please make sure to welcome our newest member to the Spyderco Family (& to Bladeforums): Owen Wood (woodcutter)-please see his post regarding lock stregnth.

Clips (& screws) are being processed (blackened) at this time. I'll check for scheduled shipping of black clip versions.

Thanks for the update, charlie! We SpyderNuts will be waiting for more news...
 
Are the clip's of the C-55 Starmate and the C-35 Military exchangeable?
TIA

Red Mag - I think they will because of the hole pattern, but putting a Military clip on a Starmate wouldn't look right because the Military's clip is curved a bit to match the handle's curvature.

Hi Dexter!
I know that the c-36 clip is curved and that's why I want to try one. When I open my c-55 I feel the need for a little more space for my index-finger to get a good grip.
I would have tried already, but my c-36 is the old version with the straight clip (2 screws).

I could go for some black clips for the C-36 Military. The chromed ones are nice, but a little too flashy

Let us know when they arrive and I will definitely order some!
