I don't see why they wouldn't. If you can mount the factory clip on that scale, you should be able to mount the other one.

Yeah if the Spyderco's hour glass clip fits then Casey's clips will too. On a side note does anyone know if Casey has ever made ti scales for the yojimbo? :D

In regard to the OP's question, Casey's clips will indeed fit but there likely will be a need for you to sand down a small portion of the Anso sculpting where the flared out portion of the two bottom screws sit, so the clip sits fully snugly. This is an issue with the Putnam scales and Casey's clips in general, and I don't see why the Yo2 scales would be any different.

In regard to Jon's question, no he does not currently offer custom Yo2 scales, and it's not very likely he will ever offer them.

I can take a sanding drum dremel bit and gently flatten out the area the clip rests on....I think that would be the easiest way to do it....no?

Most likely. G10 is super easy to work with a Dremel. Make sure you wear breathing mask, you don't wanna breathe G10 dust.

Sorry for the lint and stuff all over the pic...the flash really picked up everything. I'm really happy with the back spacer though. It's my only PM2...I like them, but am more of a MIllie fan.
