Opinions on clip for Delica SG.

Here are the 3 options, and I've already installed 'Gold' titanium screws on the scales. Waiting on pivot screws.

I think continuing with the gold theme would complete the look.

That's what I'm thinking too. The first is the original clip, the last is a Pops.

Depends on what you value most. Black factory clip offers ease of draw while being reasonably discreet. Deep ride clip offers maximum discretion but reduces the ease of retrieving the knife from your pocket. Gold clip looks the best and match the other hardware while retaining ease of draw, but also draws attention to the fact you're carrying a knife.

I'll never carry it, I have several and just wanted to dress one up.

I'm a big fan of black clips especially on dark colored scales, but I gotta agree with the above posters, the gold sure would complete the look. And as you say, you're trying to "dress it up." Go for it!

Wish list: Hundred Pacer; Sliverax; Mantra; 52100 PM2 SE; Kapara

Then definitely go with the gold one.

JUST in that special case: Gold.

And for me not deep carry in any case. Don't really like that generally

What a pity that the knife won't get carried...

- EDC: Endura thin red line ffg combo edge (VG10); Wayne Goddard PE (4V), Endela SE (VG10)

I'm not big on Gold but I'd have to go with that one too. Not a fan of the Pops. I'd use the original black clip before I'd add the Pops.

It's titanium. Got it from 'Knives we love' on eBay.
