A sposed to be brand new salt just landed on my doorstep this morning, is this a new roundyround rustproof clip, or has someone pulled a fast one and swapped it with a regular endura/delica clip?

That is the new style. A endura/delica won't fit a salt.
 
That's CQI for ya. Spyderco had recently switched to that style from the older squared style. You're good to go!
 
It's good looking is what it is. I'm planning on getting one of those, I hope I'm getting the new kind.
 
It is good looking isnt' it? I don't know why it didn't occur to me to try this before posting too, but I have some old hard drive magnets sitting around and just checked all the metal bits on the knife. Black and lockbar= strong pull, Clip screw, extremely weak pull on one side only. I think from a very thin (300 series?) stainless washer underneath the screw assembly. Clip, ZERO pull. Yep, that's titanium all right.
 
All new production salt folders should have that clip.
 
Can anyone confirm these on Pacific Salts yet? I've been meaning to order a new one but would like to get one with the updated clip.
 
Ordered my Atlantic from the place that is similar to the big forest in South America some time ago so I believe the change is in affect:

I ordered these two from Cutlery Shoppe and just got them in last week. Salt 1 and Pacific Salt both have the new rounded pocket clips.

Excuse the crappy pics.
