The following information is taken direct from the Outdoor Edge Catalog.To Titan, there are no plans for a true lefty clip mounted Impulse or Magna however both knives do feature ambidexterous opening.

MAGNA by Kit Carson
The Magna, designed by custom knifemaker Kit Carson is a robust, full-sized folder with a slim, lightweight profile for everyday carry. This is no ordinary pocketknife, but a solid workhorse to handle any outdoor cutting task. The Magna features a streamlined 4" clip-point blade with a grooved, ergonomic contoured handle. Gripping ridges above and below the guard section offer a secure purchase during hard knife use. The Magna features easy one hand opening and a positive locking liner. The clothing-clip offers immediate access and convenient sheath-free carry. The Magna is available in both plain edge and 50% plain-serrated edge. Kit Carson's reverse-tooth serration pattern offers dynamic cutting power yet performs similar to a plain edge without tearing or binding. AUS-8A stainless steel blades are hand finished to a razor's edge, ensuring superior edge retention and performance. Two handle options include nylon-glass filled Zytel and cold forged/tempered 6061-T6 Aluminum with hard coat anodize. Both handles are sandwiched in sturdy 420-J2 stainless steel frames.

Kit Carson
In 1993, Kit Carson retired as First Sergeant from the United States Army. His extensive military background centered around Combat Arms including all areas of Cavalry, Armor and Infantry. Following day one of his retirement, Kit has pursued his current occupation as a full-time custom knifemaker. He made his first knife in 1972. Now, 26 years later, he plans to continue making knives as long as he is capable. Kit resides with his wife Betty and son Jody, an apprentice knifemaker, in Vine Grove, Kentucky. The Carson home and custom shop are located on top of a wooded mountain with the Whitetail Deer as their closest neighbor.
