Hi guys!

I was just wondering If anyone has broken the pocket clip on the Victorinox One-Hand Sentinel?
I've seen reviews here and on youtube that mention the clip feels quite flimsy and that it probably won't hold but so far I haven't heard of one of them breaking (or bending, snapping, etc.)

Has anyone had one of these for some time now? How has it held so far?

I'm in the market for a new pocket knife, and for me the clip is a must, however I'm on a limited budget and the OH Sentinel is one of the few that fits in it ($40 USD here in Mexico vs $100 USD for a Spyderco Delica).

Man, I really wish Victorinox made some more models with a clip.
 
The clip isn't flimsy in that way, however, I lost my Sentinel on a bike ride while it was clipped to my pocket. The clip also, on a couple occasions, twisted underneath the scales, indicating it wasn't all that securely fastened to the knife.

If you want a One Handed Sentinel, a better choice would be the clipless version, and adding a Nite-Ize Eclipse. This allows you to put the clip where you want, and it's a much more secure combination.
 
Thanks for the input shecky, I wanted to hear exactly about real-use situations; sorry about your knife by the way.
