Deep carry / low ride titanium clips for Spyderco knives - Delica, PM2, Manix, etc.

Hey BB - As of now I don't have a clip for that one. I need to look into some ZT designs.

Thanks.

Can I get a short and a long for spyderco. I will send you $34. How do you prefer the funds gift or goods.
?

 

[powernoodle]

I hope that you are making 4x as many of these as you think you will need.

 

[theoriginalspaceman]

Hey Highway - Paypal goods please, no need to pay yet. I'll hold on to a couple for you and let you know when they're ready.

Thanks Power - I must admit I am continually surprised every time I get an order! I am glad people seem to like them.

Fair enough! Last question...do you have low rider clips for a BM Mini Grip with Wilkins scales? If so, I want to order a clip for that knife too. Let me know

 

[theoriginalspaceman]

Hey BB - I actually am working on a ti BM Grip clip. It's in the design stage right now, but I'm hoping to have some to test out in a month or so. I'll keep you posted.

Thanks for the interest!

Hello Casey,

I don't know if you are shipping internationally. I am living in Germany. Do you sell and ship to Germany?

I am really interested in your clips. The design is looking great!

 

[theoriginalspaceman]

Hey Feuerizer - you bet, I've shipped quite a few packages overseas. International shipping for any amount has been $6, but will go to $7 do to a postage cost increase.

Thanks for the kind words!

I would like a short one, anodized dark grey, let me know when they're available and I'll send the funds! Thanks!

 

[silenttt]

Are you still making them for the Delica 3? It's the SS version.

If so I'd like a short clip(unless the long one fits better). I'd like it to have a mirrored polish if you could do that. If not just let me know and I'll choose another finish.

Thanks,
Brady

Another quick question, do you make any for the Kershaw leek?

That's great.
I am interested in four short clips, two in natural grey ti and two in a dark bronze anodization.

Please let me know, when these are available and I will pay you via paypal.

Thank you!

 

[Southpaw1925]

Put me down for a short clip no anodizing for a PM2 please! Let me know when they're ready!

 

[SA Condor]

I'd like a longer one. Regular sand washed finish to match my Domino, thanks!

 

[theoriginalspaceman]

Hey Derrick - will do, thank you.

Hey Brady - I don't think they will fit the Delica 3 - that hole pattern looks different. Sorry. I think the shorty would be better if they do fit, though, and I can see what I can do about a polish. I've messed with that but I haven't dialed it in yet. But I'd be happy to try. I'm afraid I don't have any for the Leek, but it is on my project list for sure.

You bet Feuerizer - I'll shoot you an email.

Will do Southpaw, thanks for your interest!

Thanks Imari, I will set one aside for you. Thank you!

I'm supposed to get the blanks back this week, so I'll be forming and finishing soon, and I'll be getting them in the mail asap.

Thanks guys (and gals) for all your support! I really appreciate it.

Thanks everyone for your patience waiting on these. I'm really sorry about the delay and the long time it took getting this run up and going.

These are a continuation of the clips posted here: http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/s...a-Paramilitary-2-Police?highlight=casey+shirt

They're made of grade 5 6AL-4V titanium, sandwashed, and hand formed one at a time. They'll fit any Spyderco with the common 3-hole pattern - so knives like the Delica, Endura, PM2, Police, Stretch, Domino, Gayle Bradley, Manix, Chockwe, Native, Yojimbo, Salt, Szabo, etc.

There are a couple differences in this run from the last run.

- These are .040" ti, rather than the .032" ti of the last run, to make them a little more stiff, and a little less springy.

- The 'neck' has been lengthened to help them sit just a shade deeper in the pocket, as well as to alleviate some of the distortion effect forming had on the large access hole in the last run (a cosmetic-only issue, and minor, but I wanted to fix it).

- There are 2 length options: the 'original' shorter length (1st image), and a longer 'leg' for FRN-handled knives like the Delica, Endura, Stretch, etc., (2nd - 4th image). The pinch point on the new longer version hits on the smooth Spyderco logo, just like the OEM clip. This long clip is also better for knives like the Domino, where the pinch point is a specific area on the scale (to miss a lockbar cutout or relief).
The shorter length is the same as the original clip, and (in my opinion) works better than the long version on knives with non-FRN handles like the PM2, Police, Galye Bradley, etc. I think it works better since there is less surface area to get hung up on seat belts, tree branches, desks, significant others, etc.

- There are some anodizing options available. I am not an expert by any means, but I can get some blues, purples, bronzes, very light greens, and greys. I can also do fades or gradiations if anyone is interested. Wish I could get black, but I guess that is not possible via anodization. I'm not sure how tough the color will be. From my research, this type of anodization scratches and wears relatively easily.

- I can also 'flame anodize' them with a MAP torch. That's a spontaneous and inexact technique, so the color and the way the color disperses on the surface will vary.

- I tried out waterjet cutting this run rather than laser, so I wasn't able to get the feather logo etched. I am bummed about that. Sorry if anyone wanted the logo. If I get the chance to make another run, I'll go back to laser so I can get the logo back.

The clips are $16 ea for either length, with $2 shipping for any amount (international shipping is $6). If anyone is interested in anodization, add $2 per clip.

These are guaranteed for life. If you break it or tweak it or just don't like it, I'll refund your money or send you a new clip. I want everyone to be happy with their purchase, so if there is an issue I'll make it right.

My paypal is thelastleaf@fastmail.fm. In the "Notes" section, make sure to let me know what length you want, if you want any anodization, and your mailing address.

My goal is to get them out next day, but I am catching up with pre-orders, so it may take an extra couple days to get in the mail to you.

I will also be emailing everyone who has contacted me in the next couple days.

Thanks everyone for looking. Email me with any Qs.

Casey

Hey Casey, I sent you an email but didn't specify what I wanted in particular. I would like two plain jane short clips for the PM2 and Gayle Bradley. I might also come back later and see what's going on with the Griptilian clips; I'm just not sure if I'm buying a full package from cuscadi or just the scales yet. Look forward to hearing from you.

 

[SA Condor]

Thanks Imari, I will set one aside for you. Thank you!

Hey! I'm overseas, do you want me to add $6 or $7 for the shipping? Let me know and I'll send the payment!

 

[theoriginalspaceman]

Thanks Remy, will do!

Hey Imari - yes, shipping overseas is $7. No need to send payment yet - I'll shoot you an email when they are ready, I'm hoping early next week. Thanks very much!

Casey

 

[silenttt]

I'll take a shorty for my delica 3. If it doesn't fit I'll just buy a new knife that it does fit lol. Hopefully you can do the polished shine, that would look great.

 

[cairndude]

I'm afraid I don't have any for the Leek, but it is on my project list for sure.

Casey, since you're considering doing the Leek clip, take a look at the Zancudo clip as well. They have similar geometries and identical (as far as I can determine) hole center spacing. Here's a pic of the Leek and Zancudo clips side-by-side:
