Looks great! Nice mod, fellow southpaw.

What clip did you use and how did you drill the screw holes?

[Manixguy@1994]

Thank you Nerdlock . The clip mod was done by STR several years ago . MG2

I’m not quite sure , I sent the knife to him and got a letter explaining what he did and why . Behind the scale is a tiny plate to draw in the screws to the back side of scale . The clip on right side was cut off smoothly leaving the ring around the pivot to keep that area snug . I believe this is the first CF run in CPM S30V Military , produced before the dedicated lefty Military came out .

Ah, figures. Thanks for the explanation though!

As another lefty, I'm hoping that there'll be a new version of the Military that is somewhat more ambidextrous. I can operate a right-handed liner lock okay (righty compression lock as well), but a 4-way pocket clip is what I most desire. That would be aces.

[Manixguy@1994]

I definitely agree but may be how the clip is set up on the Military hinders that upgrade . Maybe it’s time to do a complete makeover ? MG2

Whenever I get another Millie I´ll do something like this and change it to tip up carry (I am a Righty)

Can you draw and open it with 2 hands or does it require 3?

[Manixguy@1994]

Sorry you had to be the last person on the Forum to know I have three hands . Actually I get around very well except for Square Dancing ! Regards MG2
