Where do you carry your BM 210?

Hi guys,
I have been looking through this forums for a few months now, and I can say that I truly love it. You are all very kind and knowledgeable. You have helped influence my decisions to buy a few knives as well (BM 210 and mini griptillian)

So here is the real question: How do you carry your BM 210(with the kydex sheath)? I fell in love with the knife, but I don't know where to put it. I prefer to have all of it concealed if possible. I also plan on carrying it everyday.

Heres what I tried so far
neck knife: well I tried this out when I first got it, but I find it too scary to pull a knife out from under your shirt when I am out in public.

Left pocket: This didn't last long. There was no good way to pull it out or put it back in the sheath.

belt loop with handle facing down: So far this is my favorite method of carrying the knife. The thing I'm worried about is the knife falling out of the sheath. I would hate to lose this knife. The knife only fell out once during a three week period, but I'm still afraid of losing it.

Belt loop with handle facing up: I tried this, but I didn't really seem to like it.
The knife kept rubbing against my side. (I put my shirt over the knife)

Let me know of your ideas. Be creative. Pictures can't hurt either.

Thanks
 
I don't carry my 210, but if I were to, I would want someone to make me a pocket sheath with a clip on it, very similar to the ones that the Graham brothers make for their Razel line. That would keep it mostly concealed, but easily pulled out for use, and would probably keep me from losing it.

I lash it sideways on my belt. With your shirt untucked it will be concealed, but ready to pull in a second. I tried to carry on my neck also did work out. This is the best way I have found to carry this little beast. It really makes this knife usable. I would also put a small lanyard on it, it makes is feel like you don't have to be so choked up on it.

on a small tec-lock , carried horizontally with the handle ending about a few inches from the belt buckle ( like the above pict but move it to the right ) so it just over the left side pocket. Carries nicely there and in a polo or Tshirt , it disappears completely.

Its a great little knife.

I carry it or my Rinaldi Matrix in that position.
 
Thanks for the information guys. I am currently wearing the knife horizontally along my belt line. It fits nicely. I never thought of this because I thought that It would slide up and down my belt too easily. I may look into getting a lanyard for the knife as well. I'll see how this turns out. For some reason I am gifted with the anti-art bug.

I may look into a kydex sheath with a clip on later. Thanks for the idea.

Now I better stay off of here for the night so you guys don't tempt me to buy a new knife. :)
 
I carry mine around the neck, but I use paracord and cord-locks so it's adjustable and safe.

Right now, last night and today, I'm making a couple of leather sheaths for my 210. The one I made last night is just a tad loose around the knife, but today's version is a tighter "pop" fit. I'm away from home TDY now (and I don;t have a good digi-cam anyway) but I'd sure like to get some pictures of my first attempts at these sheaths in here.
