Are there any knives made by Victorinox that come with a pocket clip from the factory? I'm not good at modding my knives and I don't want to void the warranty :/ I don't have a preference for which type of Victorinox it is as long as it has a decent blade. Thanks!
Slap a NiteIze Clip on the SAK of your choice - it doesnt take any modding talent at all, just the barest minimum of motor skills.
They are glued on with VERY strong adhesive but can easily be removed with a length of fishing line.
There are two types of NiteIze clips.
One is the 'HipClip.'
Its okay, but will slide out of what ever compartment or pocket you keep the tool or knife in. I have several HipClips, but use them exclusively on tool/knives, that are in closed/zippered compartments in rucks or the like. The clip makes the tool or knife easy to get to at the top of the pocket - no fishing around in the depths of a ruck pocket.
For me, the HipClip dont work on a knife or tool, which resides in a jeans pocket. The knife/tool will slide up (and in a worst case scenario up and out of the pocket) when you sit down or remove the pants. Just doesnt work.
Luckily, NiteIze makes a far far better clip - the NiteIze 'Eclipse' which has teeth, that literally bite into jeans material. Annoying at first, but once you get the hang of it, the Eclipse is fantastic to use. You quickly learn to remove the knife (in my case) with the clip on from the pocket in one fluid motion. It will literally NEVER leave the top of the pocket no matter how many summersaults you make. A great and useful item.
I wont link to it, as I couldnt find it on the NiteIze site, but look for the words 'NiteIze Eclipse' on a well known auction site and it quickly pops up.
I heartily recommend the Eclipse (at least it works for me).
A couple of my modded SAKs - the CF one with the aforementioned clip.
