There’s a decent chance that when you hear the words “money clip,” it will conjure up images of classic pressed steel folded bill-holders. And this frankly isn’t surprising considering that this traditional design is employed by the vast majority of the money clips that are on the market. Dango’s MC02 Titanium Money Clip may change this, however, as the American EDC gear purveyor has now introduced a thoroughly modern and top-shelf take on one of these items that will almost certainly alter your perception of money clips — and whether they’re worth carrying.
It’s traditionally been hard to justify keeping a money clip in your EDC rotation, as they really only provide a single function that can be served by plenty of other items and pieces of gear that can carry bills while doing far more. And that’s a major part of what makes the MC02 so special, as it brings a few additional functions and a greater level of utility to the table — while at the same time putting a top-shelf and EDC-specific twist on the segment. For starters, the thing can accommodate a whopping 40 bills, or 30 bills and up to 10 cards — an attribute that on its own is pretty impressive, though it doesn’t end there. The MC02 also features a built-in bottle opener, along with a genuinely usable chisel and pry tool crafted from carbon-reinforced stainless steel.
In typical Dango fashion, the MC02 Titanium Money Clip benefits from a calculated, tactically-inspired design that’s been brought to life using top-shelf materials and meticulously American craftsmanship. Tipping the scales at just 2oz, the MC02 is constructed around a body that’s been precision machined from aerospace-grade 6061 aluminum before being mated to a titanium clip with a stonewashed finish. Offered in satin silver or jet black body colors, this entire item ships with an included jet black top grain leather sheath — allowing you to carry the MC20 in its sheath in your pocket or bag, or carry it clipped to your pocket as a multi-tool instead of serving as a money clip. Looking at the MC20, its array of functionality, and its premium materials, it probably also won’t come as a surprise to learn the piece of gear was engineered from the ground up for everyday carry.
The Dango MC02 Titanium Money Clip is available now, with pricing set at $79.
