With a clip with a long back plate (scale side) I have used industrial strength double sided tape on one and velcro pads with adhesive backing on another. They work well, are durable, theoretically can be removed without damage to the scales. BUT these methods do add more thickness to the knife. With the screw methods, a little Locktite may be a good addition. As always, a great video.

I have bought those Chinese clips, I have several models. I don't doubt the strength of the clips or the strength of their attachment to the scales, but I really doubt the strength of the attachment of the scales to the handle. I think if you pull the clip a bit the grip can come off its fixing.

Hello Felix A good job as always! I tried different positions of a clip mounted to the scales, but I found nothing that satisfied me. The Clip is always in the way or I get pressure points. After a bit of thinking I came up with my personal favorite: a clip with just one hole at the end (I beliefe from a chain of a pocket watch), latched to a piece of rope with the proper diameter and a knot at the end. This rope is turned into the corkscrew and there is the secure, flexible and removeable pocket clip to some SAK ( and a solution for the lesser talented as well...).

Figured I'd find someone else using the KeySmart clips in the comments. Love 'em, keeps my Compact handy and has made it the first knife to truly be an EDC for me. The only problem is if you find yourself having to write with the pen being held by the multipurpose hook, you now have the clip dangling and dragging along your writing surface. It still works, but is real annoying. My solution: bring a real pen :D

A little bit of "screw glue" at the attachement points (very very tiny drops) can make the scales hold on a bit tighter when you put them back on. (Does require some time for the screw glue to "set" though). Screw glue is more like a "liquid gasket" if it's thje blue kind than a "glue."

One idea to have a clip and no hot spot would be to design a scale that has a retractable clip. Something like the Lionsteel Thrill pocket clip, except on that one you deploy it by pushing from the other side. On a SAK scaled it would have to deploy differently, because you wouldn't be able to push it out from the other side.

Wie geht's, Felix? It's amazing that Victorinox haven't really addressed the pocket clip issue, as there is evidently a big demand for them. Victorinox could make a nice little pile of money selling aftermarket scales with pocket clips fitted! Personally, I hate the ergonomics, and I usually end up taking pocket clips off the knives I buy that come with them - ironically, I sometimes then use them on small tools like magnetic pick-up tools, picks, screwdrivers etc, where they don't bother me so much! For SAKs, I'm more of a belt-pouch-carry kind of guy, but I can see this isn't suitable for everyone.

I had an idea a while ago of attaching a strong magnet on the inside of the scales to hold the clip on the handle using magnetic force. Would not be as strongly secured but might be ok if you just want to attach the knife to your pocket or bag. Then you can remove it when it gets in the way. You can also attach it to your backpack if you have something metal on your backpack without using the clip just put a lanyard too just in case.

Поэтому для себя я остановился на самой первой дорогой клипсе с Али. На самом деле она очень не плохая-нужно установил в брелковое отверстие,а не нужно быстро и безболезненно убрал. Зато не портится внешний вид и не настолько она крупнее чем все последующие клипсы из видео. Спасибо Феликс,интересно как всегда.

I have been using double sided foam tape, and plastic cable management hooks, and taoe the hook on the back spine. I carry the thicker knives, so the back spine is the "thickest" dimension, making the knife sit flusher in the pocket or belt. Also, the foam grips the metal pretty well, and I don't risk snapping the scales off because of overworking the plastic mounts that hold the scales in place. That's the weakest point with scale mounting a belt clip.

I had some plus scales for the 85mm Victorinox Evolution line that I had gotten from shapeways that I was able to put a pocket clip onto. Used some 1/16 aluminum sheet metal as added support that I drilled/tapped into for the screws (the scales had a space large enough for a small filed square of it to fit into). Ended up being in basically the same location as in the third clip style just on the scale side that doesn't have cutouts for the phillips/corkscrew tools.

Here in the UK there is an eBay vendor who sells replacement Victorinox scales, with these clips mounted. The price is only about £1 more than I'd pay for just the scales. I bought black plus scales (without the tweezers, pen etc. but I already had them) with a black clip, for my Climber, so aesthetically it's perfect. He did a very good job of it, he's glued the screw on the inside of the scale too. I'm really happy with it, I don't use my Climber for extended or heavy use, but it's become my go-to EDC SAK because of the clip. I'm considering buying a NightIze HipClip, which is a silver glue on clip originally intended for mobile phones, for my Farmer X but I'm not sure as I do tend to use that for more heavy work out in the woods. I know it would hold fine as there's a guy on Reddit who did it years ago and his is still holding up well.

As an American planning to visit Europe in the spring of 2024, I face the same problem many of your other viewers face. We can't carry a Swiss Army Knife in the cabin on the flight over, and we don't want to pay often high check baggage fees for just a small knife. I've thought about mailing a SAK over, but I'm unsure how well the pickup would work. You might want to do a video on knife-carry issues both in getting them to Europe and carrying them there.

Just buy a chinesse replica for 8 Euros in any store, and then throw it away before returning to USA. Not as good as a Victorinox, but it will work.

Buy an SAK in Europe. On the last day of your stay, mail it to yourself in America.

Hi Felix, as always, supercool inspirational video! However I want to add the idea of creating a clip out of kydex and using a short rope to hang the knife inside your pocket. I read this in an online forum and tried it for myself. Of course you have something hanging on your knife which is a bit clumsy but at least it does not create hot spots in the hand.

This is right up my alley! So much so that I already have some clips waiting for me to install - happy to see you do it first Felix so I can see how it's done! I really wasn't confident the plastic scale would be strong enough. One of the clips I bought is made from titanium. It was more expensive and completely unnecessary, but I noticed it seems to have less spring tension than the steel clips. I figured that might be nice to avoid pulling too hard on the scale.

If you need clip but it can affect your grip. I think you need to try install "suspension clip keyring" in your SAK. I've done try it. And I like it.

Thank you Felix for this video. I think this is a very interesting hack/MacGyver mod for a SAC. And the black clip you put on the yellow knife looks sharp (and unobtrusive). Even the install on that one didn't look too hard. The only part that gives me pause is removing the scales. I've heard they sometimes don't want to stay on as well once they've been removed. Though I suppose one could simply buy replacement scales and mount the clip to those and then swap the old scales for the new (modified ones). 🤔 I'll have to think about this... Definitely going to bookmark this video.

У третьому варіанті пластину варто вклеїти. Це дозволить знімати кліпсу, коли в ній немає необхідності, и встановлювати назад, коли вона потрібна. А ще краще, приклеїти пластину до самого ножа, а не накладки- після цього вона буде триматись ще краще. Дякую за відео👍

Hey Felix, what do you think: would Victorinox profit from selling assembling kits of their knives? You could disassemble the knife it for cleaning. You could add some clips. This seems interesting and profitable to me.

A pocket clip is an unnecessary complication for an SAK, in my opinion. They are small enough to be a pocket knife, and the clip will affect the grip. If I am whittling wood, I imagine I would pretty much hate it after 60 seconds.

I agree and don’t agree haha. I have a tec accessories p-7 clip to my alox electrician (my edc knife) it’s held up surprisingly well, super comfortable for light daily tasks and having sat at the bottom of my pocket all day drives me crazy 🤷🏼‍♂️😂 . However putting a clip of any kind of my 91mm Ranger would be irritating than useful.
