As I wake up from a slumbering sleep, take a shower, and get dressed, I stare at my collection on the dresser, without a second thought I shove my small sebenza in my pocket as I hurry out the door. My other knives saying take me, take me, coughing on the dust in their pivots. It seems as though Ive forget them, but as I return home, I always calm their anticipations, opening, closing, as if they were my children, maybe tommorow AFCK, OK spydie, next time Boa. its sad all these good knives, I leave sulking on the shelf. I only wish I had twenty pockets to spoil them all, o'well I guess Ill have to make it up to them next time.
 
You should look for pants that lend you more pockets than the normal jeans ;)
 
I occasionally have fondle-fests where I pull out all my knives, and fondle them one-by-one. I admire each of them for about 2 minutes.

It takes a while to get through the lot. :)
 
I just bought my first pair of cargo pants about a month ago and very quickly figured out that between 3 sheaths on my belt and the six pockets I can carry about 9 knives (gotta invest in a pair of suspenders).
 
Yeh, I get trouser-sag when I carry too much crap on my belt.

I hate that feeling when you're all geared up, with loads of cool crap on the belt, and then your friends tell you that your undies are showing. D'oh! :)

Shouldn't you be able to fit many more knives on the belt? And don't forget the neck knives!
 
answer is simple : buy a holster belt. way stiffer than the usual belt,so you can carr much more weight without showing underwear ( and the knives clipped to the band of your boxers! ) :D
 
Are you referring to the stiff duty belts that can be worn over the normal ones? Mine is 2" wide, I wanted to get 1.5", but the store was out.

When wearing it over a normal belt, it looks really weird under a t-shirt. Like my belt's really fat (well, it is, since it's actually two belts).

I think he was referring to the stiff gun belts that are designed for solo wear. My EDC belt is the Original Instructor Belt (1-1/2" Combat Shooters Model) from The Wilderness Tactical Products. Belts like this can support a lot of weight without any sag. I have plenty of sag all by myself... :D

Wait, what am I talking about. I *can* put this thing in solo :)

I just need to take out the fastix head and thread it through my belt loops, then reattach the fastix.

Great, now I can use my belt all by itself! However, doubling up is great when I need to quickly take off the gear on my belt (i.e. when I've got to empty the dump truck :)). I can just detach a few snaps and a fastix, and all my stuff stays on the belt the way it should.

You carry ONLY ONE knife at a time???...What the hell are you thinking???.:eek:.:D.:eek:.
 
Give Dexter a shout. . .he solved the "not enough pockets" syndrome some time ago. He's got a vest with numerous pockets. :D

Talk about endless carry ! LMAO
 
When I work, I'm 45 miles from my home and basically cut off except for fragile communications (cell phone), and a 2 hr. bus ride! I always take my Sebenza, and maybe a small FB in my pack. When I'm out locally and don't want to carry a FB, then some of my other folders get rotated into use, but when it counts one of my Sebs (usually the small when I'm working, the large if I'm dressed more casually) goes along!
 
Just get a bandolier like the singer from BLUES TRVELER(JOHN POPPER), has for his harmonicas:D

Alpha - What you are referring to is called "knifesturbation." There is no cure, so far as I know. :)
 
I take my EDC's and put them all around in a circle, like a clock.

Than I take my Queen Serpentine Jack, open the main blade, Set it down on it's backspring,(turning it into a spinner of sorts, with the main blade as the pointer) and spin the knife. Whatever it points to becomes one of my EDC's for the day.:D

Just kidding I just grab what I'm currently obsessed with, which at this moment in time are BM 730 Ares, BM AFCK 800, Rocky Moser CA Legal auto, Queen Serpentine Jack, Spyderco SS Dragonfly, and Spydercard in the wallet.:D :cool: :)
 
The other day I took my jeans off without taking anything out of them. I couldn't believe how much they weighed! I had my EDC, SAK, SOG Power Pliers, wallet, change, keys, etc. Now I know why I get tired about noon!

While I can't wear them for work, when in casual mode these days I'm usually wearing a pair of Timberland Cargo shorts. They are so cool. They have nine pockets on them. Some that zip, some open and some with velcro closures. There's a place for everything and it's all convieniently located (at least for this right hander). I love them so much I got several pairs.They're 70% nylon and 30% cotton. The only drawback is that they have a captive nylon web belt and the belt loops won't even accept a well made business attire aftermarket belt. But they are comfortable and have tremendous cargo carry/organizing capacity.

In other, more conventional pants where I might want to carry more, a DeSantis belt works well for me. No sag. Serious leather. It fits well with the Timberland zip off leg cargo pants (which don't have as many pockets as the shorts) as well as Levi 550s and Khakis.

For advanced business wear, I am intrigued by the Dockers Transport pants. It seems like they're sort of like dress cargo pants. I have only seen them one place and they didn't have my size. If you can imagine a pair of Khakis with a sort of hidden cargo pocket that starts just south of the existing front pockets, with a small zipper burrried in what would normally be just a seam, then you get the idea. They are very cool and I hope I can find some soon.
