I noticed that there are sabers with covertec Knobs here at US but do they come with the clip too?
No they do not. You have to buy the clip separately. |

That said I would like to think maybe in the future they would incloud them or maybe hae it as an add on. Perhaps it could match the covertec knobe...

Just a quick heads up about which clip not to buy. The Krusell Multidapt clips look exactly like the Covertec clip but the wheel is way smaller and completely incompatible with the knob on an Ultrasaber (and most other sabers). It's a shame because their clip is mounted on a nice leather belt loop. Pictured below is the clip and included plastic wheel next to my Overlord for size comparison.  |

That knob is nowhere near the size of the cover tech. There is no way to attach the smaller knob or would it be flimsy. |

Yeah, it's a shame, but it's okay, I'm really happy with my SWbeltclip (earlier in this thread). I'm sure I can think of some other accessory to attach the Krusell wheel to. Macrobinoculars or a comlink perhaps.  |

Macrobinoculars or a comlink perhaps. POINT! Edit: Kriff it, everyone get's points because I've had a great day. (Those day's when no one give you the finger or cuts you off and work goes smooth and quickly.) That is the way to go, find the silver lining in it; too many get caught up in the negative, if it doesn't work with what you're doing than chances are it can work with something else. Oops! it doesn't fit but I have an old Sidekick that would look tight hanging off my belt as my "All-Tool" for Kham. IDK if it's been mentioned in the suggestion box but apart for everything else and option to pick up the cover-tech clip that goes with the wheel when you order. I got mine from TCSS, if anyone would like the link PM; though it shouldn't be to hard to find. It fits well and holds tightly but releases smoothly once you've got the feel for the motions involved. |

I can vouch for the swbeltclip clips; I bought one from their store on eBay. Fits my Ultrasaber perfectly, the belt portion has a lip on it so it won't slip up off your belt when you're grabbing your saber, and it's all black - plus, I like the rectangular shape vs. the obviously modern cell-phoney looking shape of the legit covertec clip.  My only caveat is that the plastic feels a little cheap - not like, gonna-break-at-any-moment cheap, but just.. cheap-ish. Oh, and the release mechanism action is great (the saber is really locked in until you squeeze it) and can be activated with your drawing hand if your fingers are long enough.  Baught these too. The ones coming with 2 in one order from lurcher on e-bay. Same reason too... I like the full black. |

Not to necropost, but just to make it known that the Jedi-Robe ones are of amazing quality. They feel pretty sturdy, and come with a wheel!

Great! It is so much easier if all these things are available in one place.

Maybe I should have waited a bit...I just order 4 from TCSS, with some blade plugs. But hey! Just gives me some spares in case of costume malfunctions:) Can't wait for the movie replica ones. Are they very sturdy?
