I was reading a post about small knives & it got me thinking about how do you guy's wear/carry these ? I carry my Izula the most & my BK11 2nd & my Mini-Reeder 3rd

Post some pics of the way you carry !
 
My FB Hiking Buddy rides nicely in a cargo pocket. I should make a leather pocket sheath for it though. That would keep it from moving around in a wide pocket.
 
I like the KSF Adirondack pocket sheath. Lately my Alan Davis misery whip lives there and it's roommate is a Vic Spirit X multitool.
 
I often mount my BK11 on the shoulder strap of my Operator, but most often I just pocket/belt carry. It really depends on what setup I'm using, which size/type of knife I need to use on the run, which pack I'm carrying and which pair of pants I'm wearing. Those little pliars pockets are just about perfect for sticking a necker in.
 
A small carabiner on my belt
An O ring on my knife sheath
I clip the O ring on to the carabiner

So I can change the knife I want to carry

So the small knives are on the carabiner and then can sit in my back pocket
 
I carry my Fiddleback Hiking Buddy in my right front pocket most of the time when I have it out, Carry the HEST inside belt right side reversed, the Izula2 on my belt when I still had it, and I wear the Becker Necker as a necker, and so with the TOPS travelin Man2.
 
I wear my CS Pendleton Lite from a carabiner clipped to my right front belt loop, you can reach it be lifting your jacket and it sits on your lap when you sit.
 
My Izula slips into the back pocket of my hiking shorts and I use a paracord lanyard to secure the sheath to my belt so all I have to do is one-handed pull the knife from the sheath.

Same here only I use my front right pocket.
 
I EDC a small fixed blade. I have a braided paracord lanyard attached the sheath; the knife goes into my right back pocket handle up and the other end clips onto a belt loop via biner. The paracord lanyard is attached to the sheath via girth hitch for easy removal, should I want to use a teklok instead (horizontal draw, bout 11:00, near centerline).

When I'm hiking/backpacking/camping I usually have a medium size belt knife on my belt and a SAK in my pocket. 5.11 Taclite Pro pants have a nice lil pocket on the front right just for knives, works perfectly. When I had an Izula, I'd sometimes mount it to my left backpack shoulder strap. Also have a W&SS necker that lives in my PSK pouch. If I had to fall back on that as my only knife, I'd carry it in my right front pocket or set it up for neck carry.


And now that I'm uploading this picture, I just remembered that I carry a lil spyderco ladybug on my keychain :)

Izula II in left front pocket. I keep the sheath on a pretty long piece of paracord tied to one of my belt loops to keep the sheath from going astray when I'm using the knife.
