Absolutely! You have to have a proper sheath and spend a little experimentation time finding YOUR "Sweet Spot". I do it all the time wear shorts and a t-shirt, and can sit down naturally without the Bowie printing. We're tralking a 10.5" blade and I'm 5' 9", 160 lbs. Was just demonstrating that at Indy 1500 Gun.Knife Show this last weekend.
