STR said:I am sure I could make the clip but I've never tried to do the heat stripe. Not even sure how they do it or if they do it on titanium. Aren't the Strider clips stainless? Put a magnet on the one that came on the knife and see if it sticks.

a portion of the pocket clip does sit in a hole in the frame... this along with the screw keep it from moving...STR said:I had a friend check his Striders with a magnet. Apparently the clips are titanium. I looked at the clip on the SNG and I do believe that it would be possible to do a fold over low rider clip for it but as for matching it to the finish of the rest of the knife there is just no way for me to know about that.
The best I could do is try to anodize it close to the same color or shade after bead blasting the clip. It may be possible to get some grayish/brown stripes on the clip but anodizing doesn't produce a black color so I know I couldn't do that.
Without seeing the knife in question and having it in my shop to try to do something like what you ask through some trial and error experimentation I can't say for sure how it would go. Looking at it the clip looks plenty wide enough that if I copied it and folded it over it would work. I am a little curious of the mounting of it since it seems to have just one screw. I wonder if it sits in a cut out or recess in the handle or not but can't tell from the pics.
