Izula: Neck or pocket

Pocket. I used to like carrying neck knives around my neck. I like the sheath hanging in my chest/stomach area. It is not comfortable, I leave enough paracord to swing freely for access. I've never had a near choking incident, but if I did, it could be cumbersome to cut the paracord, as opposed to a pull chain. Last, I don't need a "tactical approach". Taking the sheath out of my pocket, and removing the knife, with two hands, is really the only action I need.
 
Neck like this only under my shirt when out in public:

After a week or two of getting used to it, I can't even feel it's there.
 
I carry an izula in my front right pocket and another around my neck. I always use the one in my pocket though. I haven't really touched the one around my neck. Neck carry seems to print easier if you bend over a lot.
 
Right front pocket 95% of the time.Today me and the wife went clam digging,so I wore it around my neck.Did'nt even think about it being there.
 
Carry mine in a kydex sheath, LR pocket while at work. As a mechanic, I tend to have all sorts of crap/tools stuffed in my pockets (not while driving customers cars, of course..) during the course of the day, so I doubt if anyone would notice even if it was noticable (which its really not). Unobtrusive and sheeple-friendly, yet readily accessible and convenient.
 
I would prefer belt carry, but with the rest of my EDC gear already hanging on my belt I don't have enough real estate for the Izula. I've already gotten used to it on my neck. Like most other things we carry, once you get accustomed to it you hardly notice it.
 
either on my neck or tied to my belt with paracord. It does not fit well in my pockets.
 
I'll admit to tossing it in my pocket every now and then, but most of the time it can be found around my neck.
 
Put a molle lock on it and carried it on my belt the entire evening. It actually worked great.
I carry it between my left front pocket and my belt buckle. Easy access and easy sheathing. May even be a keeper this way.
 
Neck under my shirt. The old sheaf was clearly visibly through my shirt. I cut down the edges of the sheaf and not it isn't as visible! Carrying it in the pocket seems really awkward.
 
Pocket. I dont like things around my neck. If i get into a fight i dont want anything around my neck that my opponent can strangle me with.

I carry it on my neck for just that reason, I want to give the opponent an advantage to make it more of a fair fight. ;)
