Source for clips for pocket sheaths?

[SBranson]

Does anyone know where to get this style of clip to make pocket sheaths?

Thanks!

Not 100% sure but I thought I saw some like that in the Tandy's Catalog.

Tandy has ones that function the same, but nothing that looks that nice.

Dave got those from William Henry. I have no clue how though.

Might contact Dave at "Lifter's Leather", me might tell you how.

I think I've found another option. KnifeKits (and probably others) carries a deep-pocket clip intended for a folding knife.

Like this one:

If you attach it to another strip of metal, either with screws or silver solder, you'd have a nice looking clip that could be sewn or riveted into a sheath.

I guess I could ask the maker of these sheaths but I also saw them on this thread:

with the following photo:

I just assumed someone sold them so I will ask the makers where they got them.

Also, don't the William Henry ones have their logo on it?

Keep us posted when you find the source, please. Those do look really nice.

I'd be interested also, there has to be a commercial source....

Paul Long has those clips. At least he did. I have bought several from him.

I don't have his contact information handy but he is a member here. I believe he goes by sheathmaker.

Great guy to deal with.
