Only place I don't carry is my job at a public school....don't want to catch a felony along with unemployment. Hopefully that will change in the future....

Here we go again, main reason I carry riding my bicycle is dangerous dog's. It's better to have a gun and not need it.

Dog breed of peace at it again

I remember hearing the story about an older gentleman in the Houston area choking a pitbull to death with its collar when it attacked him on his morning walk. He was badly injured, but survived. This was back in the 90's.

The story was that he had a pocket knife but was unable to open it with one hand while using the other to keep the dog at bay. So, he choked the bastage to death.

Since then, the number one requirement for any pocket knife I carry is that I'll be able to open it with one hand.

And, I always carry a pistola unless I'm somewhere it is prohibited by law.

That's why I took to carrying a small fixed blade. Folders are work knives for me, not weapons.

Damn that a Auto knife

Damn that a Auto knife

My EDC folders are assisted openers, and even a full on auto knife is slower than the fixed blade. If Fido is chewing on me, I just wanna get to stabbing. Same thing if I wind up fighting some nasty tweaker or something - I don't want to mess with trying to open a blade when I could just grab & stab.

This thread is deja vu. And not the dogs involved. I swear all these posts have been posted on her before verbatim

My manly gut makes carrying a fixed blade a chore. I've tried various applications but would like something I didn't have to look loop through the belt. Perhaps a scabbard with a clip...

History repeats. Over and over and over.

This is my little fixed blade with two different scabbards I made for it. I thought I had a pic of how to carry the black sheath, but I don't yet.

The black one has a rubber band around it for grippiness, it hooks in behind the belt, and grabs a belt loop. Between the belt's tension, and the rubber band / hook on the end of the scabbard, it stays put very well. The handle angles down just enough to get purchase, knife comes out quick with either hand. Its not a big knife - but enough to poke hokes and slash some nasty cuts. Its a GTFOM (Get the F off me) knife.

That’s a nice blade. Info on the blade?

Sure thing, that's the CRKT Mini Bowie knife. They run about $25 at Academy or Walmart. Made the sheathes myself, because like most inexpensive knives, the sheath it came with sucked for my purposes.

This is a good pic that shows the size of the knife in relation to the other crap I carry with me, and shows the rubber band around the black sheath.

In that last pic, you can see how the blade hides behind the belt / belt loop. You can adjust the cant of the blade's handle down for better accessibility, or upward behind the belt for more concealability or comfort.

Hell, here in West Texas even the plants want to kill you. I don't go anywhere without some kind of protection.
