I bought this clip for my husband, to take on a trip in place of a wallet. The clip is very good - nice spring, but the card side is poorly designed: you have to keep 5-6 cards in it at all times. If you take one out, the rest will fall out as well as there is nothing there to hold them inside. It is also quite large. I was forced to send it back, but got an immediate refund from the seller.

I wanted something stylish and slim so I can carry my id, few cars and some cashola. I really like it except for the fact that they don't show you the side where cards slide in. The problem is, it has a whole bunch of holes that
don't really go with the overall look of the product. I guess the company tried to save material/weight. I wouldn't try to save weight with a money clip. It would've looked better with a few slots instead of holes.

Size of the clip is acceptable, slightly towards "big", but you need to remember that it is due to the design and the way it holds your cards. I don't mind it because I feel it in my pocket. I wear khakis that usually have deeper pockets and are not as tight, so I never had a problem with clip's size.

Another drawback I see is that you need to have a certain number of cards for them to fit securely. 5 is minimum where I feel safe.

Although I don't like this, I gave it a "3", because anyone can see how big it is. It does work as advertised, although the springs that hold the credit cards in should be a little stronger.

SO, if you want a big wide money clip, the corners of which are always poking at you through your pocket, this will work for you. I guess I kind of forgot that the reason I wanted a money clip in the first place was so that the big wad of cash would be soft and unobtrusive.

Got this money clip for my hubby after a frantic search and recovery of a dropped wallet. He loves it. Hubby is a minimalist, and doesn't like to carry alot of stuff - this holds 2 or 3 credit cards, a couple of business cards and a thin wad of cash easily. The smoothness doesn't seem to wear his pockets, and the weight (a tad heavy) and size keeps it in the bottom of his pocket, instead of up and out onto the floor like the first one. He recommends it to all his friends. Nice classy look, too.
