Does a Kershaw Leek clip fit the Cold Steel Air Lite?

I like the Air Lite, but I don't like shiny clips and I really prefer deep carry clips.

Looking at the pics, is there any chance that the clip hole spacing on the Cold Steel Air Lite is actually the same as a Kershaw Leek (which have ready supplies of after market clips.)

Does anyone by any chance own both and can confirm / deny?
 
Tagged. Was wondering the same. Leek, Blur clips are the same. I hope they fit.
 
There has to be an Air Lite owner out there who owns a Leek or a Blur :)
 
Slightly modded a Leek/Blur tip down deep carry clip to almost fit flush on the handle. Tip down clips for the Leek/Blurs tend to have a shorter length between the screw holes and clip bend. It will not hang off as much.

I also lengthened the finger groove a little to give my thumb more purchase on the stud.

Nice mod!
 
What did you do to make this clip fit? I've been holding off on this knife because I don't like the clip it comes with.

I extended the screw hole over with a dremel to match up. Then used small needle nose pliers to tighten the screw since a torx bit was hard to use. Seems silly but it worked.:thumbsup:

You might be able to find a more narrow deep carry clip to mess with. Pops custom clips?
