Depends on the knife and the location - I'll often keep a largerknife inside my pack to avoid freaking people out, and a folder in my pocket. When hiking, I rarely have anything on my belt, because it interferes with the waist strap of my backpack. I've been known to attach a knife to the left shoulder strap of my pack, handle-down, or sometimes I'll lash my knife to the back of the pack. Not easily accessible, but I'm most likely not pulling my large knife unless I'm getting ready to make a camp.

Basically, I rarely end up carrying a fixed blade unless I'm in the woods, and so my EDC option is a simple folder in the pocket.
