Reverse grip is how you run with a knife safely.
If I have to do that I always hold it in a way that I can throw it away from me in case I trip.
A little related story I never told you guys…when I was a kid my actions ended up causing knives to be banned at my school. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> When I was 6 or 7 I brought one of my pocket knives to school for show and tell. It was before classes started, and I was sitting on some chairs about 50’ inside the front doors. As I was bored waiting for class to start, I was admiring & fondling my knife with the blade open. I looked up and saw my cousin (who was my age and also a student) come in the doors. I ran over to greet her, forgetting about the opened knife in my hand. There were some parents about who witnessed this, and scared the $h!t out of them as they were afraid I’d trip and fall on it. After that, they said we couldn’t bring knives to school anymore. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> Most of us snuck and did it anyway though. No metal detectors or patdowns in those days. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />
