Bugout with NO clip. I am going clipless!

[SharpieB]

Yup, I am nuts.

I went clipless on my Bugout and have repurposed the deep carry clip onto my Griptilian.

Why? I love carrying the Bugout in my $14.99 KnivesShipFree Buffalo leather sheath in my pocket. Feels like a tiny SAK.

In any case, this knife just went from being “too small and too light” and almost being sold into my main EDC.

Anyone else going BM naked?

No way, I love that clip and the way it rides in my pocket. That's the beautiful thing of modern folders IMO, the clip.

I agree. But this doesn’t end up too shabby either.

Interesting idea, but the light weight makes it perfect for clip carry.

My Bugout is my EDC as well, but not naked. Love the clip on it! By far my favorite clip I’ve ever had on a knife

I've been packing the Benchmade 482 Megumi a lot, and have to carry it clipless by default. It's small enough that it slips into the change pocket of my pants so it's out of the way until I need it. However, with ~2.5" of blade it's still large enough to be useful for most of my urban edc tasks. And to top it all off, it's really tastefully built and "people friendly" imho!

Been considering this. It's so accurately designed and lightweight it just fit fine inside a pocket bottom. I don't need rapid deployment too as it is a casual tool so... I might swap the cook small clip on another Benchmade!
