Hi Everybody,

Ulticlip came out with a new attachment method that I think will be great for the Sticker Shock push dagger.

Even though it is a wire attachment it is very strong and holds it shape.

springs right back and hold the sheath very firmly

The best part the mounting width is adjustable as is the cant (slightly)

Pics of it in use and a video by Ulticlip

I like it. Let see how it holds up IWB with the new blade once it arrives.
 
Seems like IWB might be iffy… maybe nothing for the hook to retain with except spring tension.
Looks like belt use only, to me.

I have been trying them for about a week.

They have plenty of retention even without a belt.

The wire hook holds really well.......... surprisingly well

much Better than the spyderco G-clip, if you are familiar. or any other plastic clip.
also most metal clips like the older chrome plated metal clips on the Gerber boot knives.

The DCCC clips will hold really well but....they are expensive (13.00 or more w/mounting hardware + shipping) and the catch is sharp, I have tried them and they tear up clothes.

now the ulticlip slim 3.3 I normally use has more retention because of the levered clamping mechanism, but they only attach to the eyelets on one side unless you use 2 of them, which will double the cost.
Also with the ulticlip slim is somewhat adjustable you can mount it so that it can be deeper carry.

The really neat thing about this APH is it will stretch from side to side making the "hook" part center to the knife.

without having to make a separate mounting plate, which adds bulk to the sheath.
or molding a screw pocket in the sheath that could leave screw-heads exposed, and a pain to change mounting devices

You can also change it around like in the pics above to carry horizontal.

sweet simple design.

I will keep testing but so far carrying and drawing is a dream.
