When wearing a suit..

Snakewood inlayed Mnandi in its leather sheath in my RFP.



One of these, sheathed/clipped to my inside jacket pocket (when wearing a suit, blazer, etc. with one) or my right front pants pocket (when not):

What model is that?
 
I will usually carry this limited addition Wm. Henry when wearing a suit.

Let's hear it for William Henry knives for the formal occassions. W/H Icon with abalone inlays goes well in the inside coat pocket.
 
Either an Opinel No6 or a Spyderco Dragonfly2 loose in my RF pocket, and/or a Spyderco Delica inside the waistband behind my right hip.
 
A Ken Onion/CRKT Eros. The most elegant knife I have ever owned, even over my small Seb. It only weighs 1.5 ounces for a 3" blade, and even the way it opens is elegant, fast, but quiet, like the click of a nice pen.

When wearing a suit I'm covered up considerably enough that I still tuck a folder in my pocket but for protection I carry a full size 1911 .45 ;)
 
My choice was a Fallkniven Tre Kronor folder (TK4, to save a few bucks), but I am waiting for a BM 480-1 Shoki (it's obviously the CF + M390 model) I purchased yesterday from Knifeworks. Very excited about it...:)

The same. Snakewood Mnandi in leather pouch, but in left pocket. Sometime I add a Piorec Arch-Angel to my left inside coat pocket.

However, now that I am retired I wear a suit and tie only for weddings and funerals. After 32 years of dressing up for work, I now live my life in jeans and tee-shirts.
 
I usually carry a Mnandi or UTX-70 in the pen pocket of my jacket. Failing that I will have something cliped to my belt like a small fixed blade or mid sized folder. On occasion I may have a cleaver in a shoulder rig under my suit jacket, it just depends on what I'm going to be doing. :):thumbup:
 
This guy almost every time. A small Unique Graphic Sebenza from '97, with raindrop damascus and decoration by Chris himself. Just right for dress slacks.

Mnandi in shirt pocket, small inlay Seb in pants pocket. Various others possible in briefcase.
 
Tom Brown Tracker...strapped to my leg (under my suit pants, of course) Just kidding :D Im a dirty construction worker, so anything goes, knife-wise. I did always wonder how guys who had to wear suits to work carried a knife.
 
I go light weight with a suit, like a Victorinox Cadet. I don't like a heavy clipped folder pulling on the pocket of my $9,000 Italian suit, you know.
