How do you carry your smaller JKs?

I've really had my eyes on some of John's smaller knives (EWOK, baby kephart, 3 finger necker, backup) But I'm unsure of how I would/could carry it. I know they come with a neck/pocket sheath, but I've never really been a fan of neck carry, so do you guys just slip everything it sheath and all into a pocket? I've always liked to carry my fixed blades on my belt, and I was wondering if any of you have figured out a way to do do that with these smaller knives. I've thought about baldric style carry, and I think I've seen people with the smaller JKs doing that too, any thoughts? I appreciate your input, I'm trying to figure out exactly what I want for my first order, I'm saving up the money right now.
 
I wear my jeans to tight to comfortably carry one in my pocket. I put two nylon zip ties on it and carry it on my belt. Dont even know its there.

I have a kydex sheath from Jeff H. I can run some paracord thru the holes to make belt loops and tighten with a cord lock. Generally though I stick it in my pocket, hang it around my neck or clip it on a pack strap.

Waayyyyy too much info friendo !!!!!! :eek::eek:

I wear baggy chinos and my JK slips nicely in the front pocket.

That is a great idea with the zipties. Just thinking of doing something similar with paracord.

I like my Baby Kephart in it's neck sheath in my front pocket, but I made a great little belt sheath for my Pocket Kephart which I love. It is so light and compact I forget I'm wearing it. The knife on the left is my Pocket Kephart and sheath, middle a small ML that I also made the sheath for, and the right is the Baby Kephart with John's neck sheath. I will probably make a little belt sheath for that guy too. I still have an EWOk, CB Kephart, and Budget Hunter to make sheaths for. So I guess what I'm saying is I carry them most of the time on my belt. I love neck carry, but only when I'm out in the woods.

Usually in my pocket, with a paracord lanyard wrapped around the sheath. Sometimes I carry knives around my neck, but not as much as I used to.

Carried and used both of these guys this weekend. John's knife in my front thigh pocket, the Kster nessie around my neck.
