hey i got an idea..not sure if already tried..how bout making a clip that can be removed from the knife..kinda like cell phone cases that have a little knob on the back of them that you can attach to a clip that gets hooked to your pocket or waste line..you hit a release button and you can free the phone from the clip..to return the phone slide back in and it will lock..if made round (the knob) the knife would be able to spin around in any direction so if you sat down the knife would lay parallel to your waist line as opposed to digging into your waist..has this been tried already..i think would be hot item
