For a couple weeks I EDC'd my HookGuard with the sheath clipped to the bottom of my backpack so I could just yank the handle and it would come loose. This was really more to try out the carry system I rigged up but I did feel pretty safe.
Today I have been wearing the Chinook3 clipped to my pants. Now thats a folder ,it works with all the same back cuts and snap cuts the hookguard does. It is like a modern version of those folding bowies. I love the little hook at the end of the handle. It fits just perfect in your pocket and is very easy to get out even with a secure clip.Mr Keating put a LOT of thought into this folder.
I also usually have my trusty SS4 in my pack along with a Fenix L1P and my new Samsung Upstage.

TKC,
Hey Suzanne, Charles May just called I couldn't believe it! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />
He said he wants to make you a better knife and asks that you promptly send the one he shipped in error to me here in Wisconsin. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />
I told him..."Charles she will never believe me!" and then he gave me a secret word to say to you so that ONLY you will know that it was true. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />
The word is......Barabajackel. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" />
So if you P.M. me now I will be glad to give you my home address to ship that crummy knife to at once. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" />
Thanks for understanding, <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
Peace.

In addition to my Dan Koster Karda, I carry an Ontario TAK in the glove compartment of my car, if that counts.

Nevermind. I found it in about 20 seconds worth of searching. Rick Hinerer Knives I just sold a Benchmade Hinderer design. It is a great design, but I had to let it go. Benchmade versions are obviously way cheaper than custom Hinderer folders <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> But, I should have known ...... XM-18 = $385.00 Still an awesome knive.... but out of my price range. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> Good for you though! It looks nice! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> .
