Cool. But i use suspension clips + double sided adhesive tape. Best option for me. No need to remove and damage scales 😁 holds up fine for more than a year now..
Thanks a lot for this super interesting hint!! Can you give me a link to this clips?
@@FelixImmler I wrote a comment 2 times but I don't see it here 😁 hmmm

You make everything you do look effortless. I have struggled with exactly how to do his exact thing. Thank you for maki g such good and relevant videos. Much appreciated. 🌿
Thanks a lot for your visit on my channel!
I made this clip a few years ago on my RangerGrip knife. Just like your first option. But the second and third options are very interesting. I will try to do the same. They seem to me more reliable than the first. Thanks for the ideas
Thanks a lot for this positive feedback!
A most excellent tutorial,Felix, thanks. I don’t use pocket clips very much but I can see the appeal in keeping the knife secured.
Thanks a lot Peter!

Thank you so much for this honest feedback!
@@FelixImmler Es war mir eine Freude.🌿
Freitag ist "Felix-Tag" und diesmal wieder: was Du alles findest... unfassbar... 👍 Danke für diese Ideen, die helfen mir auch an anderen Stellen weiter - ich hatte diese clips gar nicht im Blick...
Alles Liebe und Gute für Dich und die Deinen, ein gutes Wochenende und liebe Grüße aus Stuttgart! 🤗🙏🥂
Vielen Dank, dein positiver Kommentar freut mich sehr!
I use Keysmart Nano Clips on some of my Swiss Army Knives, they work great as a pocket clip, require no customisation as they just attach to the keyring loop. They don't get in the way either.
Thanks a lot for your interesting feedback!
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
My favorite also
I used 10 lb double stick tape for both my Swiss Tool and my outrider . Over a years use and still going strong
Why dont you put the saks in a plastic bag before putting it in warm water? I do this to not have to dry them. Cool video. I love that Victorinox invented a clip for the Swisstools, they are very good, wish they would think of a version for all their saks.
Masterful and functional. Many thanks , saves a lot of money buying expensive clips
Thank you John!
I have a clip attached to the key ring. This is an interesting option for sure!
Thanks a lot for your feedback!
@@FelixImmler I’ve been enjoying your books with my youngest (8yr old boy) and they’re great! Thanks for the content!
Thanks for the great video! I did it the second way and now my SAK is more convenient than ever
3M VHB tape on a TEC style suspension clip! Very similar to the nite ize phone pocket clip
Thanks a lot for this super interesting feedback! Can you send me a link to this clip?
Спасибо Феликс, уже заказал себе клипсу. Успехов тебе и твоему каналу! Привет из Беларуси!
Thank you very much!!
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.
Can you send me a picture from your solution??
@@FelixImmler where would I send them?

"Victorinox Cybertool M/34" video on my channel, @13:50
I've done this to all my Saks a few years back, (during covid lockdown)... even have dual clips on my Sentinel... ✌️😁✌️
Super...thank you!
Very interesting. I personally prefer attaching a suspension clip to my SAK. It is easy and causes no ergonomic issues.
Absolutley! Thanks for your tip!
Can be inserted into the slot under the toothpick, the clip from the Shnaider K15 ballpoint pen. The pen itself is very cheap. The clip fits perfectly into the slot and keeps the knife in the pocket. You won't have to finish anything...) But you will have to give up the toothpick itself (.... I advise you to try it! If you don't like it - you can easily disassemble everything back. Many people who tried it - liked it. Use it for your health. Greetings from Ukraine 🇺 🇦
Felix, eres un genio, lo único que aquí en Argentina 🇦🇷 todo un problema conseguir los insumos, los clip, los tornillos tan pequeños y ni que hablar de las cachas Victorinox! 🙆 Un saludo!🇦🇷
Thanks a lot for your honest feedback!
Как обычно интересное и позновательное видео. Спасибо Фелликс. Мне больше всего понравилось крепление последней клипсы в видео,но мне было просто жаль сверлить красивый целлидор)). 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.
Good instructional video Felix , thanks for sharing , God bless !
Thank you very much dear Michael!
Mr. Felix. Your videos are interesting and interesting, they inspire and are very useful. It's a great honor to watch and subscribe to your channel. I wish you a lot of health and serenity.
Thank you so much for your super kind comment!
@@FelixImmler Here you go. The pleasure is all mine. Mr.Felix Immler 👏👍😊
Tolle Sache, es freut mich immer wieder neue Idee rund um die grundsoliden Produkte zu sehen.
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.
Hi Felix!
Thank you for your Great video!
Thanks a lot for watching!
Good Friday to you Felix. I would go with the backing plate option. Your video got me thinking about some old knife clips. Thanks for the inspiration. Bravo.
Very useful and easy to get it
Thank you!
Muy buenas Félix 😉 me parece una buena opción para adaptar el clip a una suiza no queda nada mal 👌 y en el bolsillo no se nota 😜 como siempre gracias por compartir y a seguir así de bien saludos 🇪🇦
Hello my friend. Thanks a lot for your positive feedback !
Endlich. Dachte mir schon immer das müsste gehen. Wird heute gleich gemacht . Danke fürs zeigen. Gruss Daniel
Viel Erfolg!
I have a sak without a keychain attachment so this is perfect! Thank you
Thank you for the tip. I mounted successfully. Cool
Perfect!!
Hallo Felix,
danke für den Test.
Ich finde es schade das es nicht mehr Messer mit Clip von Victorinox direkt gibt.
Ich habe ein Hunter Pro und 111er mit Original Victorinox Clip und finde beide Modelle sehr gelungen.
Kannst Du ja bei der nächsten Weihnachtsfeier mal anbringen ;o)
VG Eric.
Danke fürs Feedback Eric! Ich habe dort nicht's zu husten....😂
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.
Thanks for your intersting comment!
Thanks for your tip!
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 100% agree!
I got one, worked great.
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.
Thanks for your feedback!
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.
Read my solution...
Thanks for the great money saving tip!
hello Steve. Thanks for your positive feedback!
Another interesting and useful video, many thanks Felix :)
Thanks a lot for your visit on my channel!
обожаю тебя и твой контент
Thank you very much!
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.
I wish this video would have come out a couple months ago I ordered some clips off line I just heated it up with a torch and then melted Them in to the plastic
Excellent video! You make it look so easy!
Expert craftsman!
Thank you very much!
These simple clips could be useful for a lot of other things, and for this price you can't go very wrong!
Danke für die Inspiration. Hatte noch einen Clip zuhause.👍🏻
Sehr schön! LG
Fantastic video, thanks for putting it up!!!
Thanks for watching!
Very nice work!👍
Victorinox needs to make more than 1 or 2 models with clips, come into the 21st century. Put clip on knives = sell more knives
victorinox is in the past and we, who like the brand, will be its last customers. The small portion of the new generation who still have an interest in the outdoors prefer leathernan and the like. Nextool and coldsteel have been making great products at great value for money.
👍Handwerklich wie immer super gemacht! Aber an ein Schweizer Taschenmesser gehört kein Clip....dann ists kein Handschmeichler mehr😉
Wer einen Clip braucht soll sich halt ein Spyderco zulegen....
Danke für deinen Kommentar... da gibt^s offenbar verschiedene Meinungen.
you can use locktite on the screws so they wont come loose
Thanks for your hint!
Muy buena idea mi estimado amigo gran video como siempre
Thank you very much!
As every time, very interesting.
Thank you very much!
Get ideas buddy would like to have the black one keep up the great videos😊
Thank you!!
Would you sale me the black swiss knife
I really don’t like clips normally, although I almost always care one ironically. I find they get caught on things too often and annoy me
I use a clip which is mounted to a key ring. Not in the way when i use 5he knife, and it holds the knife reasonable well. 10 bucks for 2 at amazon..
Just buy a clip (key smart) that attaches to the key ring hole. Is much better: secure, back to OEM in an instant, slimmer and ergonomic.
Like you, I dislike pocket clips on a knife because of the discomfort in using. Since I usually carry a knife with 4 or more layers I carry it in a belt pouch. If I'm carrying a thinner knife in my pocket I prefer a hanger type clip.
I always carried Swisschamp as my EDC but for about 3 years I replaced it with a squirt PS4 leatherman on the keychain because it weighs nothing and has great and necessary tools for those who live in an urban environment. Victorinox has nothing like it. I have about 30 different Swiss Army Knives items turned into tools that stay in the car or at home.
great video. defo doing this!
better than carving class in person
Thanks a lot Stonie!
Все геніальне-просто. Дякую за ідею.Шкода, що можна поставити, тільки, один лайк.
Hi. Great idea to put a clips to update the Swiss army knife but wouldn't it be better to have used only the black one on the side where the tweezers and toothpicks are? because when you pull out the knife they will already be ripped off. It's hard to keep these pieces in the classice for the same reason I've always reversed the splints on mine.
Hallo Felix wie immer eine Super Idee
класс видео продолжай в том же духе👍👍👍
Thanks a lot!
Guten Tag Felix!
Das war wieder einmal ein sehr informatives Video. Deine Ideen erfreuen mich immer wieder neu.
Einen kleinen Hinweis hätte ich dieses Mal schon. Die hektische Musik als Untermalung passt nach meiner Meinung nicht so gut zu deinen Videos. Aber wie gesagt - das ist nur meine Empfindung.
Alles Gute und viele Grüße von der Nordsee.
Danke für deine ehrliches Feedback!
I much prefer my 20" paracord lanyard. It has a belt loop on one end and a clasp on the other. I am safe from losing my knife, I can work with the lanyard connected to me and the knife and I can un-clasp my knife if I need to reach further or to lend it to someone.
Thanks a lot for your feedback
@@FelixImmler Maybe a project for you?
Why would you even take the scale off for the first variant?
Also, wouldn’t it most stable to put threads into the first liner?
I tried a similar product and found out that it hurts the scales,but anyway,it makes my sak portable😊
Thanks for your interesting feedback!
where is your 2023 Swiss Spirit- Companion ? I want to see a can get opened with the new box opener tool that people are saying you can't open a can with it and I say you can and Felix will prove it in a video.
I prefer a fob on One Hand Trekker NS
Thanks for your feedback!
Have you tried to put a clip on any of the alox series. I have thought about doing one of mine
What was the water for? First time seeing this.
Hot water makes the plastik scales softer. This prevent that the hole for the rivet breaks out if your remove the scale.
практично и красиво!!!
Thanks a lot!!
Bu bu video çok güzel
Hi Felix ! Just come to my mind idea of suspended clip. What if you can attach clip to aluminium plate shaped to the size and than attach this to the split ring ? A little longer suspension, but hot spot free.
Awesome tips !
Thank you John!
How would you add clips to a knife with Alox scales?
very good question!! I never tried that!
Good video as always... only that...
🤔... Clearly this people who looks after using a Viktorinox or just any pocket knife with a clip, never gone to the boy scouts and learned that the "lucky mojo" way it's the best way... And that one it's to make a leather shith hanged by the neck... Other wise tha belt shiths that Victorinox already makes... Or even a shith with a clip... and so we can switch. 🤔...But installing a clip in the tool...?🤨... I dont think so...😐😑😶
Thanks for your interesting feedback!
@@FelixImmler
🤔...Is it me or I've just made the topic for a future video...?🤨
1. One single leather shith that can be used in 3 situations like neck, pocket, or bag.
2. Three different shith for 3 different uses...😉
Cheers Felix GOD bless...
I purchased a old wegner knife at a yardsale, will the new plus scales fit this old knife?
Deine Musikauswahl war mal besser ;)
Danke ... dann schick Links mit Vorschlägen!
Danke für das Review und die Anleitung. Was war den das für ein silberner Bohrer und mini Beitel? Und mit Loctite meintest Du wohl einfach eine Schraubensicherung, nehme ich an.
das war ein M2.5 Gewindeschneider und ja, Loctide ist eine Schraubensicherung.
@@FelixImmler Danke!
Felix! i recently bought a (black) Victorinox Swiss Tool MXBS. unfortunately, i hate it. i wonder what you think of it...
Nice
Awesome
Nice, I'll stick with my tooled leather sheath 😊
Wersja z klipsem deep carry dla mnie super, pomysły jak zawsze odkrywcze, pozdrawiam :)
Can you post the link?
в первом случае можно добавить фиксатор резьбы ...
How about alox?
I guess that works even better...
After snagging knife clips on dammed near anything that will snag them , and losing knives , I removed them from any knives that had them.
Soon we cannot call them serious army knives
We will have to call them Felix army knives
Haa ha haa, thanks a lot for this wonderful compliment!
Legal...passa como comprar clips👋...Obrigado pela Dica.
I was never a fan of clips, because of the reasons you mentioned. Hot spots, very uncomfortable in the hand.
Though it's ofcourse useful for having it vertical in the pocket and easy to grab.
Then again, I don't want my knives to be visible to Joe Public.
I purchased new scales with a clip attached when I broke mine, absolutely no problems with it other than fitting the scales back on.
Thanks a lot for your feedback!
@@FelixImmler just purchased a victorinox swiss tool x second hand for £50....curious as to what I can do with it in a bushcraft scenario compared to my other SWKs.
Do you have one knife with All of your recent mods? Just curious how insane that would look 😊😊😊
haa ha haa no, i don't have. they are on different knives 😊😊
@@FelixImmler small question, do you have a video on maintenance? Got a 30+ year old victorinox, still sharpish but opens difficult etc. Too much trouser time (that sounded awful hahaha).
Cheers from the Netherlands
Sei grande
Thanks a lot!
Давно поставил клипсу на 111 мм, хочу на alox, но это сложнее.
👍👍
Thanks a lot Glen.
👍👍👍
Thanks a lot Adam!
Bad idea. Why do some people always have to have pocket clips on everything? 😂
everyone what he wants.... there is no right or wrong
