I'm really just curious about how others like to carry and unsheath their knives. I personally like my sheath on my dominant side, with the edge pointing forward if the knife has a 8 inch or less blade length. I feel that unsheathing with a reverse grip is more fluid and the transition to a forward grip is easy, than the most common way a knife is carried. Now if it was a large fixed blade it would just be the common way.

So how do you carry your fixed blades?
 
Are you talking fixed blades that we carry for EDC or when we are out in the woods?
 
EDC I do it like this:

and this:

Works well for me.

I EDC a Becker 24. When I'm on duty I carry it concealed in my weak side front pocket. When off duty, its in my strong side pocket.
 
I carry like the OP. Right side, edge out.
 
I have 3 EDC fixed blades in rotation. I pocket carry my BK14 and izula. I neck carry my candiru.

In the woods---- standard strong side belt carry for my bk16 or bk2
 
I'm right handed, and wear my fixed blades at about 8:30 position, on my left hip towards the back, in a sheath that I made:
