Sheaths in use. How do you carry your becker?

[Saint Loke]

I'd really like to see how you carry your knives. Is it drop down? Riding high? Strapped to your pack? Is it baldric system that holds your prized possession?

The older I get, the more fuzzy I get about my gear. The sheath was something to stick a blade in, now, after years of experience, it's an important part of my equipment, as it will be carrying my most important tool in all kinds of conditions. I also hate carrying more than I have to, so I prefer minimalist sheaths. Not any pouches or emergency tins on my knives, but YMMV.

For my BK10 I use a dangler sheath from azwelke, I usually wear long anoraks, so I need low riding knives. Due to the low temperatures and snow up here, I never use leather, only kydex or synthetic materials. My BK9 is always strapped to my pack. For me it's primarily a camp tool.

I just ordered a kydex dangler for my bk10 to day.
I ordered it from godspeed and I can't wait for it to come

I think the dangler is one of the best designs for outdoor use whether the blade be medium or large. It is a simple design but works very well.

I carry my BK2 in the advanced model from Hedgehog Leatherworks. I love that sheath! I may get the basic model for my Tom Brown Tracker, only because I like the look of a minimal type sheath with that knife.

Sorry I can't post a picture but I carry my BK-2 in a SOB (small of back) knife sheath made by Sagewood Gear attached to my hunting pack.

I have a kydex dangler sheath made by Grizzly Outdoors for my BK7. I have a small non-becker knife (shame on me) in a kydex sheath with a tek-lok mounted for horizontal carry. It goes great on the shoulder strap of my pack. I have a feeling there will be a BK16 riding in the same type rig by fall hunting season this year...
