Has anyone seen these CF clips from USAknifemakers?

cool! but they look snap prone!

I like the Ti deep carry clips from that site. I have a coupld BM's rocking those.

The Carbon is really nice looking though.

-where are they on the site?
 
They have the same three holes and exact shape as most benchmades. I've seen one picture with an emerson, so im assuming it fits on my mini grip :P
 
Just picked up 1,500 of them. Wanted to get the best deal possible. Just kidding, but if they hold up for you guys I might grab a couple.
 
Has anyone received theirs yet? I'm curious to hear about how much tension there is. I'd love one for my 940 but I hate loose/weak pocket clips.
 
I've ordered quite a few of his Ti clips with positive results, nice and thick with fair pricing. I ordered a couple of the carbon to give them a go and see how they are. They are kinda neat looking. Threw in a few other things as well just cause I think I have my wife convinced there is a min. purchase or something. :)

Any chance you could post a few pics? Can you pull up on the clip easily or does it have a good amount of resistance? I just want to make sure it's something I want. I'm fairly picky about my clips.

Thanks!
 
I rec'd mine today in the mail. After I had installed the clip on my Large Ritter Grip with Wilkins scales I noticed there was little if any retention, you could see a sliver of light between the clip and the scale.

I like a firm/snug clip because with my job I'm crawling under and around decks and have no desire to loose my work knife.

So, time to make some modifications---placed the clip in the vise---screw side down. Fired up the heat gun on high---hit the base of the clip for approx 30 seconds while putting slight pressure on the top of the clip until I could feel it soften. Pushed it to the point I thought would allow for a snug fit---let cool for another 30 seconds and PERFECT :thumbup:

The edges where quite sharp so I knocked the them down with 400 grit sand paper and they're perfect.

These are strong clips---like others mentioned concerns in regards to strength, I found them remarkably strong!!! I bent one near or close to a 45 degree angle as kind of a test to put my concerns to rest. Not a problem period in regards to flex---snapped right back to it's original shape.

All in all---nice looking, light and strong :thumbup:
