who has modified their Vic Spirit?

Yeah, I tried every speed on the drill press, starting from the lowest. Nothing wanted to go through though.

I'm not sure yet what I'm going to do about it. I haven't really gotten the chance to sit down and try to think of something. The clip still works great, so it's not as if it's unusable. If I think of a good fix, I'll post it here, just in case anyone else runs into the same problem (not likely... I'm sure everyone here has better tool skills than me :) ).

Maybe try elongating the hole slightly with a dremel tool or a round file. Then use a tiny piece of metal in alongside the screw to fill in the gap when you tighten it?

I too ground off the serrations on the blade of my Spirit and put a bevel on the flat side. It's now a straight razor....
 
WOW! Your clip job is stunning. Looks very refined! Here is my mod, I had a buddy at work weld a clip on. It makes the Spirit a pleasure to carry for sure!

Nice welding job! I can't see any sign of the bead even. :thumbup:

The clip does feel natural on the Spirit. Wonder if Vic will ever offer it as a factory option?
