Also,look around for some of the old Flickit clips.Found a couple still in the packages from the '70s at a local flea market,and they work right well on my two old Gerber FS1.

Thanks Jack, I have seen Bill's work, I didn't even think of him for such a mundane job, Dustydog, I have a couple of knives with the old One Arm Bandit stud, I'm looking for something more " go to church" look.
