How many of you base at least part of you decision on a new pants/shorts purchase on their knife handling utility? I've become very attached to Carhartts and other sturdy pants with tool pockets on the right leg. When I have to wear khakis or other more dressy pants w/out 5000 pockets, it can get pretty annoying having to reach past your knife every time you need to get change or something else out of the only pocket on that side of the body (especially if it's a Buck-Strider SBT with its cheese grater handles :eek: )
 
One of the reasons I like clips. Small knife in left back pocket, change in left front pocket, money clip and keys in front right pocket, knife clipped into front right pocket. Hankerchief in right back pocket. Wallet usually carried in cargo pants.
 
I'm the opposite, I pick a knife based on what pants I'm wearing that day.
Jeans = Strider GB
Thick Khakis = Strider SnG or SmF
Thin khakis or dress pants = Something smaller (Sebbie, Small RJ Martin, classy Hinderer...) although today I have on thin ones and I'm carrying a BM Gravitator which is rather large for the pants. It's new though and I wanted to carry it. :D

later,
