Clip recommendations - something stiffer?

looking for recommended clips that are stiffer than OEM for my Endura and various PM 2 s.
I don’t care if deep carry or not.

Nothing wrong with OEM but for some reason I have bent and re straightened my K390 endura clip a couple of times lately. I keep snagging it on stuff. (Maybe deep carry would help?)

Not sure if any will be bend proof but looking for something stiffer/less prone to bend. I also need to to a better job of not snagging in the first place (not sure why I seem to be doing this more often lately, last time brushed up against a doorway and snagged on mounding for a second but enough loosen clip tension.
 
Good luck. I was trying to bend the end of the clip on my Dragonfly so it would be possible to get it over the hem of my pocket, and I bent the pry bar instead.
 
This happens to me pretty often as well. I have jumped off a ts for many times only to find my knife snagged on the seat lip with a bent clip.

You can place the stock clip in a vice (wrapped in newspaper) and bend the clip back. Same thing works for bending the lip.

As far as aftermarket, take a look at Lynch clips. They might have something a bit more beefy in titanium.
 
I like the MXG clip offerings, myself.
My favorite is the, not so deep carry, clip..

More like a wire clip, depth clip.

A milled clip, would be a oem look with more hefty.
 
If you are bending the factory clip
You will bend a Casey or MXG clip just easily .


You either need a Milled clip
or find a Belt sheath for it
 
Went with A MXG milled clip - was $45 as opposed to their $25 offerings (which I also picked up for a Delica).
Very stiff and should do the trick. Time will tell
 
RGT, Ripps Garage Tech. Milled clip. $50, but probably the best clip for low profile.
