Recommendation? Need a shirt pocket slip with clip for new to me 2012 Case Trapperlock 7154L

Uh, pic upload was easy as pie with new software, thank you Sparky-
Williams-Henry Large ClipSlip is a scosh small for this Trapperlock's thickness and length. If ClipSlip was not perfect for Benchmade 480 Shoki Winewood and Boker's Merlin-Light rosewood I might stretch it out. Hoping someone has blazed this trail b4 me.
This is my first ever Case. Love the orange tiger wood, not sure about 420HC IN 2021, if it is as good as my 1970 110 was, I'm OK with it, but..., also, has not needed stropping yet. It came to me as collector-mint-perfect, and I took care of that :cool:. Hard to believe it is hand assembled, beautifully done, seams perfect along backside, perfectly centered. Case reports they will neither install pocket clip nor sell me one if it did not come with one, so I use it as I got it.

CASE XX TRAPPERLOCK PATTERN: 54L, MADE: 06/05/12, HANDLE: 7154L ORANGE CURLY ZEBRA WOOD, BLADE: 420HC TRU-SHARP® SURGICAL STEEL, SABER-CONCAVE CLIP POINT BLADE = 3.125” with 2.875” CUTTING EDGE, 0.09” THICK, PIVOT: SPECIAL BUSHINGS, BOLSTERS: Nickel Silver, LINERS: Brass, 3.4OZ, ENGRAVED THUMBSTUD FIXED BY A TORQUE SCREW, LINER-LOCK, POCKET KNIFE, NO CLIP.

A classic/venerable (Nerd's) white pocket protector for leaky ink pens?

EDIT:
By the way, your 1970 Buck 110 had 440C, not 420HC. :D
Buck switched from 440C to 425M around 1981/1982 with the 3 dot, then to 420HC in the early 1990's

Leather would b nice:), brown preferably. Had no idea, loved the way it took an edge off the stone. I actually like various 440C knives I've tried in the last few years.
 
Is that a thumb stud? :eek:

Now, now read the rules for this forum b4 posting, thumbstuds ok, clips out, with wiggle room mentioned.
 
From General Guidelines:

Modern locking mechanisms such as Walker liner locks, pocket clips, holes / studs to allow one hand opening are all out.

Nice looking knife by the way. Just turn it around and post a pic of the pile side and there should be no issue.

Here's the quote from the sub-forum guidelines:
Modern locking mechanisms such as Walker liner locks, pocket clips, holes / studs to allow one hand opening are all out. (Traditional liner locks, such as the lock on a TL29, are in.) Add a clip to a stockman, and it needs to be posted elsewhere. By the same token, if it is traditional except for a clip and you remove the clip, feel free to post it here.
I'm going to leave it for the time being, since you were posting it here in an effort to find an appropriate pocket sheath for it.
I may end up moving or locking it at some point. Let's see where it goes.
It's a slippery slope......
 
I use one of the Collector Knives/MKM slips with the magnetic strap in the front pocket of my work shirt sometimes. It fits my single blade trapper pretty well.
 
Modoc ED, IMMEDIATELY LAUGHED. Thought about removing stud ala clip comment in rules, but walker lock still out, and then tweeked offside pic from your comment so no stud showed, but that is not grey area thats skirting rules.
I thought to eliminate the word trapperlock from my post and pic. Who would know? And a slip with a Clip for a Case trapper will work as well, I'm thinking. In the end I remembered this forums rules language: friends, friendly, and moderator Knarefg's word leeway, and lots of appropriate reading trapperlock posts post-dating rules, with friends enjoying conversations.
Thank you for allowing some time for someone to answer my question Peregin. I am unable to physically open a knife with two hands, and have wanted a trapper since I was a pup. I am a very happy camper with this traditional like trapper.
Greasepiggy- perfect, I've never handled one, seemed kind of heavy duty for shirt pocket use when I was looking at them for the Shoki n Merlin. Thank you. Slips with shirt pocket clips have opened up my small world to non-clipped knives.
