+1 IWB at 3 or 4 o'clock frees the pockets and conceals carrying a knife clipped under the belt in an society with growing NKP (speaking of West-Europe)Sharp Guy wrote:I often carry a Manix or PM2 IWB at 4:00. Works well for me and I hardly notice it's there. I'll have my LTC soon so, like Spydersense, I won't be able to carry that way very often anymore.kjd2121 wrote:IWB carry at 4:00 is the only way I carry. Any sized knife just disappears so I don't need to be picky with what I carry. You guys should try it and it frees up the pockets. It is also very easy to deploy once you get used to it.
Give it a try.

Slysz Bowie disappears, that contoured Ti makes it almost unnoticeable, particularly for the size knife.

Positron, I carry it as a #2 and always forget it's there, I like the mantra also, probably slimmer, but heavier.
Re: Pocketfriendly-ness
Delica for me so light and I can dump it in my pocket,
Re: Pocketfriendly-ness
I carry different knives during the week and weekends. During the week I want something smaller, so the Delica 4 gets the nod. During the weekend I will go with something larger, like a PM 2.

I use Pacific Salt plain everyday for food preparation at work... big and light an strong enough to do tougher jobs, and H1 steel sharpens very quickly after dulling while cutting on ceramic plates... but when I go to the party, pub of family meeting nothing can beat the Squarehead in pocketfriendly-ness...

Re: Pocketfriendly-ness
Delica and Stretch are very pocket friendly, the PM2 less so because it is longer and fatter. Only carry PM2 clipped because it'll get stuck sideways if carried loose. The Delica carries very well loose, and the Stretch is okay, but I typically clip it.

Re: Pocketfriendly-ness
D'fly and Chappie both disappear after clipped on. The Spin is practically invisible. I find a Delica carries quite small too.
So many knives, so few pockets... :)
