That's the coolest thing I've seen done with the clip holes. What is it?

Glow-in-the-dark powder and epoxy mix. I received that knife in a trade years ago and it didn't come with the pocket clip or screws, so filling the holes with the glow mix didn't matter to me. I have a video of mixing the powder and epoxy for various projects. :)
 
GB + Dice.

Stormdrane, I remember seeing you post up pics of your epoxied bead in the past, but the clip holes is on another level of cool! Ever consider doing some hand etching and filling it in? I have a little battery powered engraver that would probably be easy to do initials or something basic...
 
This is what I've been a-carry-in.......

Domino in front and a little Dragonfly tossed in back pocket.

Sometimes I debate what to use to open packages. But usually one of the Spydies win out over the .45. ;)

As long as the hand etching is deep/wide enough for the glow/epoxy mix to fill in, it should work. The Spyderco blades have the 'stamped' in name on some knives, and that would probably be too small/thin of an example wording/groove to fill in and be noticeable with the glow. I have seen other examples of initials and stamped lettering on knives/multitools filled in with grease pencils to make the lettering stand out, and imagine some glow mix would work with some DIY projects like that where a personalized etched/engraving design/initials/phrase would look cool...
 
Well thanks to Luke I'm a proud owner of my first spyderco. Manix 2 in s30v with the dlc coating. I been whipping it out for everything. I can't stop just playing with it.
 
These both arrived today and although they look about the same size , the Slipit feels much bigger in the hand, the clue to which one i am carrying now is the short lanyard on the Dragonfly and the fact that the Slipit is back in its box, i think i am in love.

Just got a new khaki Delica Kahr model last night and it's a fun twist on the Delica design. I often carry a green g10 Delica but the matte finish and khaki scales on this new one might be my favorite setup yet.
