It looks great!
I wonder if this thread will escape any drama over the pocket clip color being changed unannounced. :innocent:

Apparently, not.
I'm happy that it has a pocket clip, and that it's a very secure design for the pocket clip. I had to get rid of my clip-on S2+ clips because they tended to go flying. My D4 pocket clip is great, though.
How is the D4S pocket clip?
please add my name to the list for two. tx
Pocket clip color change??
The new pocket clip seems to be black.
Compared to the previous prototypes :
While I generally like black, painted clips chip over time and look bad. Iâll come out against this, but buy the same number regardless of the finish on the clip.
Yeah, I donât like the black clip either, but I donât care as long as I can get rid of the paint with some acetone.
is there more angles of the latest prototype ? hard to see the clips color in that angle really.
Rusty black, to be more precise.
As long as itâs durable, I donât care at all about its color. Adding/removing paint is pretty dang easy.
I canât tell from the photo if itâs painted or some kind of conversion coating like black oxide or parkerizing.
Or perhaps its light playing tricks on the photo.
Personally, I donât have a strong preference one way or the other. I just hope the community doesnât make collectively as big of deal about the clip color as we went through about the body color.
The community has collectively made a big deal out of
What gives you the idea thereâs any chance the clip color/finish will be different? But Iâll buy just as many regardless.
Hmmmm, âpersonallyâ I do not see black; just lighting anomalies. But that & any other speculation is counterproductive at this point. It is useless. Time will tell.
The good news is new prototypes are being sent out, so hopefully we will have info soon. Also that âshouldâ mean we are close to production. Maybe.
Actually, it says samples are being sent, not prototypes, which may be even better news. Maybe.
closer production then this it cant be since they are releasing those lights if it gets ok from those people they will start production so that sounds positive to me.
Sorry, we didnât say that the production version will have a black pocket clip but this is definitely black and it is not due to a lightning anomaly.
The problem is to know if they are going to adopt this black clip for the production version or if it was just a color test that they finally rejected.
It is not the first and unexpected âdriftâ from the initial prototype, so we would like to know for sure what the production version will definitely looks like.
- âMaybe a black painted button to match the pocket clip ?â
I liked the silver clip, and I liked that the tip section was smooth. It has a good texture for thumb fidgeting.
Not really excited about a black clip, or having an extra hole in the end. Color will probably scrape off, and it already has a better place to attach a lanyard.
Would be nice if the only change was to fix the driver fit issue.
Yes, that would be nice. I donât care about the clip at all, but I see no reason for making silly changes at this stage of this very long saga.
