and forgive me if it's been asked before, but what are the odds of seeing the Little Temperance with the four position clip that the ChinookII is going to have? As a lefty I am SOOOoooo thankful that you offer so many of the FRNs with ambi clips. But it would be nice to see some of the top end models with the ambi clips too. Thanks for for putting out such cool knives and taking the time to listen.

The extensive machining of the Lil' Temperance's handle makes it rightie-only design. So there won't be a 4-position clip mount. There would have to be a separate lefties model, and that is unlikely.
 
Hi Frank. In its current configuration, as Carlos mentioned, it is not really possible. We do have plans to make a number of changes to the Lil Temperance over the next couple of years. A 4 way clip mount on a formed 3D handle would be the goal. At this time, it is proving difficult enough just to keep the model in production. We are a small company and often bite off more than we can easily chew.

The Lil Temperance is a personal pet project of mine. I believe that in 10 or 20 years, the 3" blade length on the Lil Temperance will be considered a "big" knife for EDC. I would like to have the design quite refined in the near future (1-2 years).
