Thank you! Full disclosure, he added the clip. I sent a larger on just in case he didn’t like the sleeve/belt loop, but his is more practical. Big blade for pocket carry…kudos ferider ferider

I like the idea of the sleeve/belt loop a lot. Just so you know, there may be more people out there who pocket carry/iwb fixed blades of this size with clips. Here's how I do some of mine:

Works up to ~7" blades for me.

Pro: most comfortable for me for sitting down, in the car with seat belt, etc.
Con: might be seen as "concealed" in some states/counties, when you meet the wrong LEO (I never have, fingers crossed).

Can’t dispute any of that. Ulti-clips are great, but at the time, for me, they were a little pricey compared to the tek-lock knockoffs I picked up. Definitely will be considering a switch

If I don't care about the knife being seen, I'll carry Charlie Mike style as it's the most comfortable, if I do care, I'll do pocket carry or iwb 7:30ish carry. Matt's method of carry is also super easy to get the knife out while seated in the car.

Luckily I'm in a constitutional carry state, carry just about anything open or concealed so no worry there.
