Microtech Socom Delta bent clip

[LouDog5446]

Hey guys, I bent the clip on my socom delta on a seat belt the other day and I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction as to what size screw the pocket clip has and where to get the bit.

It's the socom delta with the clip point blade and triangle screw. Thanks.

On mine the tri-wing screw sticks up a good bit. I might just try putting a few layers of masking tape on the tip of a pair of pliers (to avoid damaging the screw) and see if I could turn it. It's worth a shot!

Disclaimer: I may have gotten lucky when I did this but it worked for mine. BE CAREFUL. I used a drill chuck. I noticed that my drill had three "jaws" and I could line them up just right. The drill I used was battery operated, ie slower than an electric. Good luck.

I tried that with my leatherman and some gorilla tape on the pliers but no luck.

Going to see if I can pull this off. I'll update with the results.
