So I did a little tinkering and made some lowrider clips. Slowly getting the hang of it, and I found that the clip I made for my ZTs also fits my Paramilitary 2's with a little tweak :thumbup::D. Here's a pic of the three I made:

I stonewashed the 2 long ones, and wanted to see how far I could polish the one on the Military. I'm happy.
 
I told you man, these are the beginning symptoms!

Looking good! What thickness Ti did you use? I'm still rockin the hacksaw pocket clip I made last year for my skyline.

Thanks X, it was fun making them. Not sure how thick the Ti is, i'd guess around 0.050" or thereabouts. The ZT clip i made will fit your skyline. I can make another and send it to ya.
 
Very nice work indeed. I just am amazed that people will secure an expensive knife to their person with any kind of clip. I have seen so many clips fail or snag on something and result in people losing guns, knives, radios, tools, flashlights, and rings filled with master keys, etc. I will never trust any type of clip again. I used to work on an airfield and saw so many times people would "lose" stuff while driving a tractor or truck down an active runway or taxiway, the result being the runway/taxiway had to be officially closed while we all searched for whatever was clipped to their belt/pocket (sometimes in the dark while it was raining). Major pain in the butt because of a clip that seemed convenient. I lost a nice Benchmade knife because of the clip. I use pouches and pockets with flaps now. There is also an issue with some cops seeing that clip and deciding to go on a "fishing" expedition just from seeing the clip. My two cents.
