Small wallet and money clip. I trade off when I do not need to bring credit cards out.
Added the bills for special affects!

Same thing without the rubber band, you need to keep things simple Matt!

Here's mine that I made with yellow gold and blue Lapis.

you slide out the Lapis part to easily put your money and cards into the clip (like a clothespin)

And then you slide them back in to keep it comfortable in your pocket

Can someone please educate me on why have both the money clip and wallet (not credit card holder) at the same time?

I only use a wallet. I just don't feel comfortable to flip out a bunch of notes in a clip in public when making a purchase..... Then again, I use plastic cash as much as I can thesedays... Cos I rarely have more than £20 cash in my wallet :lol;

I tried a clip years ago when working for IBM but thought the same thing....who wants to pull out a roll of 20's in public?
I use to carry 200-300 in cash when i was on the road.....and always worried about getting mugged for it.

Cash in front pocket and Tumi slim card wallet in back pocket (it holds license and 2 credits cards).

I am with you on the Tumi brand, great value and durability.
