After seconds of development and minutes of craftmanship, I present the Ghetto Wave ADVANCED:

What is that? It looks like a wire clamp of some sort? Or did you make it from scratch? Either way, it looks like it would be a great performer.

Special trade secret :jerkit: :D

It's an electrical screw connector:

I stripped off the plastic and cut out a section of the side. It works marginally better than the large zip tie I had on there.
 
Sweet mod!
This will definitely catch on. I'm doing it to all my knives right now, and since it's a clamp, you can put it on thumbstuds too!
 
Does it scratch the blade?

I've only had it on for a day, so far it hasn't. It only contacts the blade in two places in the spyderhole and the screw has a rounded bottom. Also the brass is pretty soft compared to VG10 anyway.

Does it impact cutting ability? What about puncturing?

Doesn't seem to have made a difference in cutting ability (but I'm used to it being zip tie waved anyway). It would make a difference to puncturing if you were planning on stabbing something to the handle, but that's not really something I've had to do very often.
 
I have the zip tie on the fully serrated endura 4 but it is much smaller then this. Intereasting idea keep us posted...
