How practical is a fixed blade knife in a city

[EdgeCraft]

How many of you like to carry a fixed blade knife in a city that has a 3" blade limit and does not allow concealed carry? Can you carry it in your front pants pocket with a clip or handle showing and sit comfortably? Photos of what you suggest?

What I use is small but easy belt carried fixed blade: Michael Morris made mini fixed for EDC with 2 3/8" blade. Comparasion is Victorinox Yeoman mk III 93mm. This carries very comfortably in belt is virtually unnoticable. Mr Morris has made also pocket clip styled sheaths for his knives for pocket carry aswell:

Thanks for the info and photos. Inspired me to go to the Michael Morris website. Really nice knives and sheaths. Thanks.

You're very welcome. Just remember to oil if you get his knives. They're made from carbon steel and are tough as door nail, though need maitenance bit more than stainless. A custom utility I got from Michael around year ago has formed pretty patina from use, way I like it.
