JACKMANDU JACKMANDU

I don't know about you, but at a certain age, or degree of shoulder wear and tear, a high mount under the arm, strong side or cross draw, may be fine for concealment under a garment, but pretty dang uncomfortable to draw from. (Speaking for myself, of course.)

I remember the days when it wasn't, but now, lower riding is better...and AIWB or anything from the hip bones forward is far less aggravating to these shoulders which have earned a breather after years of use and abuse.
I hear you. I keep thinking I can IWB carry knives, and it’s just never comfortable. I tinker around in the garage with different attachments and I always go back to something OWB. The tecloc rides too high for me, so I usually do the 2 pull the dot snaps method. D9C12A95-D74B-4A67-89D1-2C444D6ACA3F.jpeg
This is pretty comfortable and easy to draw. I can also remove the sheath without having to unbuckle my belt.
I go through this whole process with every new knife. It’s part of the hobby.
 
Not familiar. Assume its discontinued? First I had the original was at Wrigley back when nobody liked em and tickets were basically free. Not many carry it around here (3hrs east of Chi) but I know where to go 😁
Yes, I think so... Heileman's was very popular in the bars around Chicagoland back when it was still an independent brewery. I used to drink Special Ex fairly often back when I was in High School and College. (late 70's/early 80's).
 
Maroon linen micarta scales on black liner can almost look black in low light conditions. They are not particularly easy at capturing their true color in photos.
I thought I'd try to take some snaps today in brighter sunlight. Just the scales (all buffed) L to R - HDFK, LC, MC:

Nice job on those pics. I agree it can be hard to capture maroon micarta well in pics.
