When you pass your coat to someone and they say **** me what are you carrying? I reply don't ask

Or when you are walking down the street and the weight of multi tools, knives etc causes your trowsers to go south? I find even with my belt tight, I have to hitch them up avery few mins

But, if you pass your coat to someone and it’s heavy enough to make them ask what you’re carrying - why, then, you’re NOT really carrying it anymore, are you? You have just passed away your knife/knives. I generally don’t hand someone else my knives, no matter what. Keep them with me at all times. Won’t do me any good if I need them in a flash and they are elsewhere.

Never had the coat thing, since I carry most everything on the Bat-belt, or in pocketses...now, if I ever have to check my PANTS, I'm sure it'll be an issue!

The worst thing for me is using the john, though...it's rough to tuck m'shirt in when ole' Mother Earth keeps trying to get a good look at my knives (and taking my pants with 'em!)...

Last year I had to go in to the room with my son when he had an MRI. The nurse told me to put my keys, wallet, etc. on a table outside in the nurses area. I got some strange looks . Benchmade AFCK, Nimravis cub, mini fang, spyderco native. Normally I don't carry that much. The Cub just arrived that morning so I had to try it! An interesting story...A LEO did basically the same thing. Except they said his weapon would be ok. It was pulled from his holster and onto the MRI machine. It took three hours top power the machine down to remove it. I guess they all learned a leson...

The first knife was probably used to cut stuff.
 
The let a gun go through MRI? Wow! That was stupid. That thing could have gotten hot enough to cook off a round. I know a radiologist who told me about a fellow who went through the MRI with a tatto. Hid tatto dated back to the Korean War and he got it in Korea. Apparently the inks they used in Korea at the time contained a lot of iron. Second degree burns from inside of this body. He shouted in pain and they shut it down, but it was to late. It went that quickly.

Wear all your knives on one side of your belt. They'll pull that side down but the other side will stay up and keep the pants from ending up around your ankles

The alternative is a belt AND suspenders. Not good. Unless it's a pistol belt. Which doesn't work in most offices ... Now if you could rig loops on the shirt to snag the suspender buttons inside your waistband, you'd have a system!
 
Got the same problem. I've considered sewing my pants to my shirt. Like a jumpsuit. But then I realised there was a flaw in that design.

*lol* I would have realized that flaw when it would have been too late... thanks fr the warning...

Since I have started to carry knives, I just wear my belt a little tighter... works fine...

LOL!!! I like the sewing the shirt to the pants idea!

As to not having any knives after passing my coat over, you think just because I have a coat, I don't carry elsewhere?

They are the 'extra's'!!!!

When I ran out of convenient pockets I started buying kydex sheathes from Mike Sastre. That doesn't help keep my pants up, though...
