Does anybody else wish Kershaw would find a functional design and stick with it like spyderco does? Most of the time I just drop them in my pocket because their clips are either too stiff or too loose.
 
They had one on the skylines and they change it to those fugly low rider things witch are horrible.
 
It looks like the clips on the new designs are a bit more practical. Some of the older stuff...well, it's better not to talk about it.
 
I don't have any of the newer style deep pocket clips but I like the looks and functionality of the older style (as found on the 0560). Its a matter of opinion, I'd rather have it too tight than not. Too many times have I had to search for a missing knife. Not so with the Kershaw or ZT clips.

Does anyone know if the new deep pocket clips are interchangable with the older style clips?
 
They've had 1 or 2 that were just too out there for me, like the clips on the Storm or the Junkyard Dog. But as a whole I think they do a decent job of designing and manufacturing functional pocket clips.

Hey pal, Batman doesn't want to hear any of your lip, aight? LOL
 
They're improving, and the ZT clips are nice on all of them nowadays.

But...
JYD Klingon clip, Oso Sweet style clip, to a lesser extent, the Skyline clip among others oh I can't stand 'em.
 
I really like the old clips that they still use on the Skyline and I like the new deep carry ones like on the Cryo.
 
My damascus scallion uses 2 different screw sizes, I have no idea why. When I switch them, the clip slides from side to side. Not a deal breaker, but very odd :confused:
 
All these years that they've been making the Leek and they're still using that same preposterous clip.
