The clip on my SK98 broke today. It broke as I was exiting a vehicle, & was strange because it was clipped on my pocket, & didn't catch on anything.
I'm pretty bummed, because it is my EDC. The clip is a necessity for immediate deployment.
I don't really have any material on hand that is suitable to fabricate something out of...
Any ideas/suggestions?
Thank you kindly for your time.

If it was a smaller SK68 i have a couple spare clips for those, but not the larger SK98.

Thank you sir.
I thought of that too...
I like the construction of the SK68 clip, because it seems to be made of a better material, & has more meat in the spot where mine failed.

If your have a few basic tools you could try this.

Thank you sir.
That's exactly what I'll do.
I don't have any more S.S. TIG rods on hand, so I'll have to pick some up...
I used a similar method to fabricate some clips for my Milwaukee 12V cordless tools, so I wouldn't have to constantly set them down during use.

It looks like it may be rounded so you might have to pound the clip part flat that bolts into the SK98
I took mine off my SH98, I might be able to ship it too you if you need it immediately
I kinda like wrist straps better than pocket clips…I always loose my pocket clip stuff

Thank you for the offer. If you have it, & aren't using it, I may take you up on it & reimburse you for shipping.
Have you ordered any of those particular clips?
If so, are they "stainless", or the real deal?
I really like the S.S. TIG wire mod, because I know it will be an easy, functional, & long lasting mod.
Yes I ordered one for a convoy S2 (not the S2+ it won’t fit) It worked well on it [I should have locktighted the threads on the screws]
I just ain’t hot on pocket clips
Let me see if I can find it or the stainless one and I will ship to you…I wonder if it would go ok in a regular envelope
Drop me a PM and we will see what we can do
