How do you carry your EDC?

[Gary W. Graley]

Main use knife right now a Kershaw Random Leek, clipped in the front right pocket. With a bead fob to draw it out with, works great but has been known to come free and slip down into the cushions of my chair at home but otherwise has stayed put.

Here is a shot of that bead fob, leather is braided near the knife to prevent it from sliding in the path of the blade, the leather then goes into the bead, out and around and then back through again, self locking and works great! My daughter made that bead in shop class, very handy!

Smaller use knife, Case stag handled wharncliff slip joint folder, vertical leather belt sheath, works great and is small enough not to garner too much attention. A lot of guys go with a horizontal sheath to be more discreet.

Now I once had a neck sheath, a VERY nice knife by Randy Martin, his sheaths use rare earth magnets to hold the knife inside...short story, on the way back from CT visiting Randy at his old home, I had a problem on the Mass Pike, walked up to a State Trooper's car in the rain and leaned in to ask for assistance when the knife, hanging from my neck beneath my shirt, swung close to his door and went THUNK! My shirt was stuck to his door! Luckily he didn't notice the THUNK nor the fact that my shirt was shaped like a pyramid from my chest until I leaned back far enough to release the hold of the magnets, man that would have been TOUGH to explain!

SO, that along with the trouble of getting the knife out from beneath my shirt and not slicing anything, I quit carrying a neck sheath

I clip mine onto my belt loop by my front right pocket. I don't clip it to my belt, or to my pocket, as it can fall out when I'm running, biking, etc. Even when I wear a belt, I just clip the knife to the belt loop. The weight of the knife causes it to hang at enough of an angle that it's near impossible for it to slip off, yet it's easy to remove when I need it. Because the knife is entirely outside my clothes, it can't be considered a concealed weapon.

You would benefit greatly by putting your Random Leek folder in a G2 sheath.

I carry everything but my phone in a small leather hip pouch that has it's own belt. Like a small 'bum bag', it has three zippered pockets so delicate stuff has it's own home and can't fall out. (This also leaves the pockets free for my new Sebenza!) I hate pocket clips, they always snag on the seat belt or chair arm or ??

Great idea! I have one sheath on the right, Cell phone and that Case stag handled slip joint wharncliff and on my other side I have the Swiss Army Swiss Tool, so I can only carry just so much on my belt before I start to look like Batman with his utility belt Otherwise I'd have one made pronto...

I carry two small fixed blades clipped to my belt and pants in the inside of my pants. I have one on each side sitting just above each front pocket, handles pointing out a bit. This way I can draw the same side knife in a normal saber grip and the opposite knife in ice pick grip. I find it come in very handy for cutting open boxes. LOL
