This is a question for owners of the aformentioned knife.

On the Spyderco website there is info on this knife that the clip can be attached to either side of the knife for left or right-handed use.

Studying the picture (on the same website) of the black bladed Para-Millie, I can't find holes one the "Left" side of the handle where the clip can be attached.

Wich leads to the question: Is the clip reversable for left and right handed use?

I hope someone can answer this one...

Thanx in advance for helping me out!

Crafft,

The Para-Military can only be carried RH tip down.

But, I have seen people drill their own holes for tip up carry. Maybe someone will chime in with details.

I'm in the picture mood so here is two pictures for the heck of it.

yes its only right handed for now.

But still a great pocket knife to carry with no clip.

Could it be that the info on the Spyderco website is wrong for this knife??

That would be nice. A lot of :spyder: knives I have not bothered to buy, because they are not ambidextrous, and if I'm going to buy a knife, I'd like to be able to use it, comfortably, without twisting my fingers around(I hate being left handed).
