Quick answer
Install the Half Face Blades Belt Clip on your LE duty belt by sliding it onto a sheath that already has a clip guard. The clip is designed specifically for 1.75-inch belts and requires the guard to be pre-installed.
Why the clip guard matters
The Half Face Blades Belt Clip is not a standalone sheath attachment. It only works with a kydex sheath that already has a clip guard installed. The clip guard provides the mounting interface that the belt clip snaps onto. If your sheath does not have a clip guard, you will need to add one before using this clip.
Step-by-step installation
- 1. Confirm your sheath has a clip guard: Check that your kydex sheath already has a clip guard attached. The belt clip will not attach to a sheath without one. If your sheath lacks a clip guard, you will need to install or purchase a compatible guard first. A common mistake is assuming the clip works on any sheath. Verify the guard is present before proceeding.
- 2. Align the belt clip with the clip guard: Hold the belt clip so its slots line up with the raised tabs on the clip guard. The clip should face outward, away from your body, so the belt slot is oriented for a 1.75-inch belt. If the clip does not slide on easily, double-check the alignment. Forcing it can damage the guard or clip.
- 3. Slide the clip onto the guard until it clicks: Press the belt clip downward onto the clip guard until you hear or feel a positive snap. The clip should sit flush against the sheath with no wobble. Gently tug to confirm it is locked in place. A loose fit means the clip is not fully seated. Remove and reinstall, ensuring the tabs engage completely.
- 4. Thread your 1.75-inch duty belt through the clip: Slide your LE or gun belt through the open channel of the clip. Position the sheath at your preferred carry location. The clip should hold the sheath securely without sliding along the belt. If the sheath shifts during movement, the belt may be narrower than 1.75 inches or the clip may not be fully engaged. Recheck both.
