5.0 out of 5 stars Better than the standard plastic belt loop, August 14, 2009

First off, this attaches to the plastic holster included with the knife and is not a separate holster. It will likely be difficult to remove the original and attach this one unless you kept the tiny star head wrench that came with the knife. Luckily I still had mine and switched the clips in a few minutes.
I bought this to replace the original because it was ruining my belt by sliding on and off it every day. This clips on easily but can be difficult to remove. That's a good thing if you don't want to lose your knife though! The main clip has a smaller 'reverse' clip inside it which is what keeps it from easily sliding off. The clip appears to made of approx. 1mm thick steel and is quite strong. It has not bent or slipped off even after I clumsily caught it on doorknobs and other protrusions several times. I think it's a great value and an essential accessory for the TDI knife.

I got this clip for my Ka-Bar Becker Necker sheath. It is very secure. The retainer tab on the clip does not allow the clip to back off your belt accidentally. It keeps the sheath close to my body so I can't snag it on stuff and holds the sheath steady when I resheath my knife. The spring steel of the clip holds its shape well. My only complaint is that it came with very small Torx head screws which require a very small Torx head wrench that is not in standard Torx wrench selections. They need to use more common flat head or hex head hardware or provide a appropriate Torx head wrench with the clip. Be careful not to over tighten the screws because the aluminum grommets will strip out easily. A drop of Loktite on each screw would be a good idea.

I ended up not needing this clip, as the TDI knife I ordered came with it already attached (not in the description for the product), but I can still say this is a great clip. As another reviewer stated, this clip is made of strudy metal and has not bent at all after months of tough use. As noted, it holds very securely to your belt, a very good thing, but is still easy to remove once you get the "trick" for it down. I wish more knife makers put this much attention into their products, I have never been disappointed in a Ka-Bar product.
