Hi All,
I recently ordered a bunch of stuff from Knifecenter, which arrived in good time, all present. I was especially looking forward to the Izula II, which I really wanted. I like neck knives, but the regular Izula looked a little small in the handle for me. However the Izzy II is a bit too thick in the handle to carry as a necker, unless I take the handles off. But I wanted the micarta handles, and paid the extra money for them! So now I have a knife which is almost a safe queen, unless I remove a feature that I like and paid extra for. Its a lovely little knife, no complaints about it, but it doesn't really suit my needs and carry methods. I should have got the clip plate, then at least I could carry it on my belt, at home and camping, under a shirt. As it is, I will probably remove the scales and wrap the handle, so I get more use out of it. Ah well, another lesson learned I guess.
Cheers, numbersman.
 
Can you order the clip plate seperately? Or there are plenty of nice aftermarket sheaths that may make the knife more suitable for your carry needs.
 
Are you talking about the tek-lock? You can order those from about anywhere. You can also make belt loops out of paracord if you wanted to have it be thinner then it is with the clip on it, maybe even wear it inside the belt/waist band.

I might try belt loops out of paracord, actually, I think I would prefer horizontal carry to vertical. Thanks for the ideas, guys.
