I wanted to try this but too many cons, glad they changed the SwissQlip so it is a little deeper carry but looks like there is still a hang up point. The "P7" key chain clip you showed is the best option IMO and it only costs one dollar. I've been using them for many years and love it as it allows the SAK to sit deeper in the pocket out of the way. Plus there is no risk of a screw coming loose and losing it. Thanks for sharing this though as it is good to see a company make this to try and fill a niche.
You did a good job showcasing the product and the effort that went into the design / manufacture of it. Definitely something I’d like to try. Thanks for sharing Ben.
I’ve just gotten used to carrying mine in my pocket. It bothered me at first but it’s not so bad now. Worst thing is all the stuff lint and gunk and sand that gets into the knife
Looks pretty sweet! I previously used a Nite Ize HipClip (adhesive pocket clip for small items with a flat surface: folding knife, SAK, power bank, etc.); works quite well. (Currently $7.52 on Amzn)
I've used that Nite Ize adhesive clip on my trekker as well and it works pretty good but is not deep carry and it is raised off the knife scale which has been annoying in the past when attaching to some of my pants. Now I just use a regular deep carry pocket clip off of a cheap Kershaw I had. I simply positioned the clip where I liked it on my one hand Trekker and marked the holes with a marker. I then used a drill bit that was slightly smaller then the screws that attached the clip to the Kershaw and drilled into the scale on the Trekker just through the scale but not into the metal housing beneath. Then I just screwed the screws into the scale. It worked great and is holding amazingly. I'm sure it's not as strong as being tapped into the metal but it has worked great for me.
If this had existed and worked for Alox models a dozen years ago, my SAK Cadet would never have stopped being my EDC! Dang. Never cared for the cheap feel of the plastic scales. Bit Alox Cadet or Farmer are great. I did use a P7 for awhile, but it's not a real pocket clip like I'd like, as you said. Now I couldn't imagine not having my old green aluminum/satin Benchmade 940, I'd just never go without it.
They need to limit the space between the clip and scales,too much of a gap that looks like it can cause a lot of wiggle.I would replace the plastic tab with metal because if your like me,I use my SAK's multiple times a day and not sure how long it will hold up.All this being said,having the option of a clip makes SAK's that much more useful.Thanks for the content.👍
It's 25 bucks and you can't even use it with alox they lost me at the fact I can't useit with alox if they made a pocket clip for the alox Cadet they would have it
It’s a good idea but it’s just ridiculously expensive I’d want it to be made from titanium for the price. 10 - 15 would’ve been more reasonable. The only person that would buy one are people who carry SAKs everyday / and or really love saks
This works on the Fieldmaster & Huntsman? Looks like the same as mine. Anything thicker than 3/4" is commonly not wanted as a pocket knife. Someone took a census...and asked.
not to take anything away from tec. they innovated so many great edc designs, but if you look up pocket suspension clip on ebay they sell them for a dollar or less depending on how many you order. the urban prepper recommended them in a vid. im looking for a pocket clip for the victorinox spirit. i want to buy it instead of the leatherman wave plus BUT the wave plus just makes too much sense for what i need. ill end up with both. i carry an alox cadet or pioneer, and a juice or skeletool so these wouldnt work for me. im a pocket clip guy but recently ive been told to try out a leather slip...might fit my needs better
$25!!!! You have got to be joking! That's only $3.50 less than I paid for the victorinox huntsman! No, I think I'd rather just carry in around in my pocket!
I really don't understand this Clip & Carry product for the 91mm SAK from Victorinox. Victorinox offers pouches, chains and even a clip themselves. There you don't have these problems with the screw, etc. 🤔
I would absolutely love this but NO WAY for $25. That price point is absurd for anything that is nothing more than a clip. I'm sure it's nice, I'm sure it required lots of technology to create, but when you can get a decent variety of great SAK's for that price range, no way I'm spending that on a clip. Everyone else, enjoy!
A humorously expensive solution for trend .. when did 14yr old girls start carrying SAKs? It blocks tools, creates hot spots, adds weight and makes you print like you're carrying a tactical weapon knife - target acquired! Quick access clips make sense on an emerson chisel not for a POCKET KNIFE it is like putting a "sniper" scope on a double barrel shotgun lol
Suspect you could even get a Nite Eyes mini biner through the top of that SAK clip if you wanted to put a backup lanyard on it so it doesn’t get lost out of your pocket or your pack. Then again, if you let the knife ride down in the bottom of your pocket like it was designed, you would lose it either.
i bought this clip and trying to mount it on a swiss champ but i cant install it even when they say it does on the packaging I'm i doing something wrong ?
Check out swissbianco . com he has them. I’ve had one on my one hand trekker for about three years as well as glow in the dark scales and they have been great. Check out my pic on your Facebook post from about a week ago.
Way to expensive...i mean, its more that the average entry level SAK and its not a bolt on for any model and it doesnt look to work all that good. Have read that the screws and the clip get lose very easily. Will wait until the chinese friends start to make this ones for like 2$...
Hard no. This thing is clunky, not even a good pocket clip, and prohibitively expensive. I’ll stick with the TEC clip. It more than half the cost of a SAK for goodness sake!
For generations people have been forced to carry a pocket knife in their pockets, thank God someone finally changed that.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 this is gold!!!

The new ones have a flat head screw, so you can tighten it up with the tweezers. Huge improvement.
It would be so easy for Victorinox to provide a pocket clip out of the box.
You did a good job showcasing the product and the effort that went into the design / manufacture of it. Definitely something I’d like to try. Thanks for sharing Ben.
Exist Outdoors yeah I mean it’s expensive but it was thought out.
Using the keyring clip/hole? = Brilliant !
Now the SAK is even more versatile ? The future is NOW.
Fo Sho
I really like this concept. When they come out with one for the Alox models, I'm grabbing it!
Same
I’ve just gotten used to carrying mine in my pocket. It bothered me at first but it’s not so bad now. Worst thing is all the stuff lint and gunk and sand that gets into the knife
Surago right. Sign of use though!
Looks pretty sweet! I previously used a Nite Ize HipClip (adhesive pocket clip for small items with a flat surface: folding knife, SAK, power bank, etc.); works quite well.

There ya go. Didn’t think of that one.

I've been wanting a Trekker. Hope they come out with one for that knife.
Very good video! And this wrench set is very cool! 😃👏🏼👏🏼

Excellent review - thanks man !
You're trying hard to justify the price before we even know what it is, must be a dreadful price 😳
It's 25 bucks and you can't even use it with alox they lost me at the fact I can't useit with alox if they made a pocket clip for the alox Cadet they would have it
Will this fit on a Compact?
Nice review. Would you know the exact measurement of the screw so i could procure replaceable parts? Stay safe!
Dude, the price on that is almost the price of my SAK Hiker itself.
It’s a good idea but it’s just ridiculously expensive I’d want it to be made from titanium for the price. 10 - 15 would’ve been more reasonable. The only person that would buy one are people who carry SAKs everyday / and or really love saks
This works on the Fieldmaster & Huntsman?
Looks like the same as mine.

I really hope they make them for the 58 mm models

im a pocket clip guy but recently ive been told to try out a leather slip...might fit my needs better
if i had a sak that would fit it i would snatch that clip up in a heart beat
$25!!!! You have got to be joking! That's only $3.50 less than I paid for the victorinox huntsman! No, I think I'd rather just carry in around in my pocket!
Happy new year Ben what a great little Mod thanks for sharing
I like your screwdriver with all the bits attached. Could you tell me the brand and model please.
Wiha
@@livingsurvival Many thanks.
Good video Ben. Think this will be ideal for my SAK Huntsman. Wish they could do one for the larger locking models (like the Outrider). ATB
It’s 2020, and I think I’m still alive......yeah, there’s a pulse.
Does it fit the Victorinox compact
Ben, any clue if it will work on the Evolution Wood 17(wood scales)?
Thanks for showing this 👌🏻🛠️
The guy said multiple times that it’s only for 91mm models
Happy New Year pal! That is awesome!
thanks!
Are they ever going to make one for Cadet?
... What's your screwdriver,you are using sir ?. Love from UK 🇬🇧🇺🇲
Wiha tools
@@livingsurvival Oh really, many thanks. I do have there stubby one, with torx bits in handle etc!.
That's pretty cool and it looks good!
hope you and your family have a great 2020 !
atb john
you too John, let's make this year our year we camp out.
@@livingsurvival right on it is way over due! Looking forward to it.
I really don't understand this Clip & Carry product for the 91mm SAK from Victorinox. Victorinox offers pouches, chains and even a clip themselves. There you don't have these problems with the screw, etc. 🤔
Donde conaigo esa herramienta en forma de pluma ?
...had one didnt like it ... it was too bulky .... so I bought a "nanoClip" by key|Smart (at a fraction of the price.... and a better option).
I have 6 of them
You must be rich
I would absolutely love this but NO WAY for $25. That price point is absurd for anything that is nothing more than a clip. I'm sure it's nice, I'm sure it required lots of technology to create, but when you can get a decent variety of great SAK's for that price range, no way I'm spending that on a clip. Everyone else, enjoy!
Would love to see one for the Trekker series, and larger, one handed, models.
I've been waiting a long time for this product omg thank you so much!
Wait will this fit the Trekker series of SAK's?
Grizzly_OsO don’t think so. List in on their website.
Thanks for the reply I will
Still alive and kicking!
A humorously expensive solution for trend .. when did 14yr old girls start carrying SAKs?
It blocks tools, creates hot spots, adds weight and makes you print like you're carrying a tactical weapon knife - target acquired!
Quick access clips make sense on an emerson chisel not for a POCKET KNIFE it is like putting a "sniper" scope on a double barrel shotgun lol
Good item
This is awesome.
You say you use the toothpick all the time. What for?
Picking my teeth.
A pocket clip for a Victorinox? Why? To expensive , to bulky and makes the classic sak looks ugly. Not my thing
$10-15 maybe but $25 I'll pass
Probably cost $1.25 to make
WTF??? Where do I order these? I need at least 10 of them!!
Suspect you could even get a Nite Eyes mini biner through the top of that SAK clip if you wanted to put a backup lanyard on it so it doesn’t get lost out of your pocket or your pack.

Happy new year Ben to you and your family . Really digging that clip , I like it a lot 👍👍 been using those clips as well
It's still a sak wtf?
Nite Ize hip clip. Less than $8.
i bought this clip and trying to mount it on a swiss champ but i cant install it even when they say it does on the packaging
I'm i doing something wrong ?
$25 for one clip it should leap from the packaging and install itself
Check out swissbianco . com
he has them. I’ve had one on my one hand trekker for about three years as well as glow in the dark scales and they have been great. Check out my pic on your Facebook post from about a week ago.
Cool man, thanks
2020 was a disaster...
Nice but expensive.
Way to expensive...i mean, its more that the average entry level SAK and its not a bolt on for any model and it doesnt look to work all that good. Have read that the screws and the clip get lose very easily. Will wait until the chinese friends start to make this ones for like 2$...
This guy spent 12 minutes telling me how good a pocket clip is.
Hard no. This thing is clunky, not even a good pocket clip, and prohibitively expensive. I’ll stick with the TEC clip.
It more than half the cost of a SAK for goodness sake!
Good idea, bad mechanical design, ugly logo.
WAY overpriced!!
