Tiny hole Nakano? Not the large hole for gripping? This was some of the early ones that the idea was kicked around into making a survival kit fit into a EQ-Bag or V-Stat Bag...this is a CC Blade that doubles as a signal mirror.
Er, no Don. The big hole is of course for gripping. I am indeed referring to the very tiny one near its middle. A signal mirror? Hmmm... Actually I thought it was to serve as an indentation/ anchoring point for the metal clip used in the current CC blades that come with the wallet. BTW can one purchase a clip and wallet seperately to compliment a CC? Thanks for responding.

Nakano,
If the hole is roughly the diameter of a stick pin, it is indeed a signal mirror/CCB. When I don't know something, I promise you I will direct you to the ever-lurking Rennie Raines or James himself...call Rennie if you do not believe me.

Nakano,
The clip will not work on that CCB you have, it does not have a hole larger enough for the clip to be attached. The attachment of the clip is via a Chicago Screw..2 piece screw.
I talked to James Sunday...you do not want to change the CCb you have...there were only about 10 of them made.
Buy the new CCB if you wish, it is a great uniot, I carry one every day...do you need more information on the mechanics of that particular piece?
I can tell you one thing, if someone takes your wallet from you, and I have tried this on blade and non-blade people, and it has always worked...if they take that wallet, the CCB is left in your hand, 100%...it is so simple and works beautifully...
