Taiki's right Slingwolf.....the grip is symmetrical and will work the same in either hand.

IMHO the clip being on the left side may annoy some left handed users. My knife is like that and it drives me crazy!

Does the clip screw in on both sides already or do i have to make modifications?

Looks like the clip is held on with pointy screws, so if you moved it, you'd end up with two blank holes on one side  Undecided

I applaud the fact that you can work with Brazilian hardwoods so well. Gawd, they're like cutting stone almost.

you could fill them with wood glue or something like that and varnish over or TS might want to think about not ataching the clip but adding it too the package including the screws ?Wink

The clip may be a bit much for some, and although it does add a bit of convenience....is unnecessary, to be sure.   SV thought I was 'gilding the lily' by merely adding a grip to the sling......


If and when he sees this thing,   He'll think I'm 'tickling the tulip' for certain!



The clip feels fine to me, although certainly not as natural as the grip alone.  If I can get them made at a decent price in bulk,  I will offer them.   Buyers would be able to state when ordering, for which hand they'll be using it.


Working Ebony and Cocobolo is an experience!  Ebony is so hard,  I sometimes see sparks coming off the bandsaw blade.  I daresay, I believe Ironwood is the only harder wood to be found, and if it's any harder than Ebony,  I don't want to play with it.  Even a small, thin sliver of Ebony 1/2" wide, 1" long by say, 1/16" thick or less is too strong to snap in two with your fingers.  Incredible stuff.  It works more like stone than wood and can leave the most stubborn and painful of slivers, especially under a nail.  


Regarding the clip, it may not see the light of day.....but the sling grip, I hope, is here to stay.
