Carrying a Mouse

John Watson · #1

Other than using the Mouse for a money clip, does everyone else clip their's to their pocket? I picked one up today and am very concerned about it riding up and getting lost.

thanks

Hi John

I have the same concerns with my Dragonflys (SS & FRN)...but I haven't actually lost one yet.

I sometimes carry my SS Cricket PE clipped to my R/F pocket(with my Millie CE in custom sheath<img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>) and have never had any problems with it moving/sliding upwards at all. Because the clip runs just about the full length of the handle, IMHO, you don't have to worry about it riding/sliding up and falling out of pocket.

To ease any worry that you may have, you could shop around to have a Kydex neck rig made for your Mouse.

I have carried my mouse many times in jeans and dockers, clipped to my left front pocket. The clip I have is very tight and I have snagged it on things (car seat) without losing it. It's a pretty heavy knife despite its size, so I can sense its presence or lack thereof easily. I recommend you carry it! One other idea is to use a lanyard; you could attach the other end to something else (belt loop?) as a trial.

I carry mine in a Blade-Tek neck sheath.

Thanks for the replys. I usually carry a KIWI in my pocket at work but the Mouse is such a tough little blade and so well made that I want to give it some pocket time as well. My clip is pretty tight as well so I will probably have it in my pocket tomorrow.

Blades,

Your "Blade-Tek neck sheath" most likely originated in my shop as I did several runs of the Mouse and full size Wegner sheaths for Blade-Tech.
