I picked this up in Munich about five years ago and have come to love it for a slim, effectiv and not too scary for office people daily carry.
I grew annoyed by the length of the 'bail' the lanyard relies on because it can get in the way of the blade and made a shorter one about a year ago but kept all the original appearances.

I finally yesterday grew tired of that and decided that 150 years of tradition was enough and riveted on a clip for something else (maybe an old gerber?)

Has anybody else modified a traditional knife to suit them better?

A clip is not a change I would add to a traditional knife, but I often mod my knives with nail access cut outs and reshaped blades.
 
One version of the factory knife comes with a clip these days. I have one. Found it on the bay but Otter lists them on their German website.
 
Just an FYI. Pocket clips aren't something we discuss in this forum. It's covered up above in the guidelines.
