Anyone pocket carry a Kick or Blast?
on: May 02, 2011, 01:19:06 AM
Though I'm mostly a belt-carry multitool guy, I have been experimenting as of late with pocket carry.  Most recently I have been trying either a LM Kick or Blast, riding loose in my LF pocket.  I carry a bunch of other EDC items and accordingly have limited space on my belt and in my pockets.  This also causes me to carry the smallest tool, light, gun, etc. which still provides good utility.

Today I had a Blast riding loose in my pocket, and am going to try also the smaller and lighter (and less equipped) Kick.  I am working a PST into the pocket rotation as well, and love the retro look and feel, but the Kick and its siblings are so much easier on the hand when using the pliers due to the body shape and plastic inserts.

So am I alone here or are there others who carry a Kick or similar loose in the pocket, and how does it work for you?

Btw, I have so many multitools that I can barely keep track of them.  I ordered a black Kick yesterday, and figured out today that I have already have a stainless Kick in the arsenal.  Its been so long since I saw it that I forgot it was there.


Blast and Kick.  Note the ergo friendly plastic inserts - which I find are very effective when it comes to comfort.


Other items that ride in my LF pocket.

Kick and PST I can manage (though mostly still belt carry) but I found the Blast much too thick for pocket carry.

I used to pocket carry the Kick all the time. Personally I love the Kick and hate to see it go.

Is the Kick definitely going, and what about the Fuse and Blast?

IIRC only the Blast is surviving the Leatherman cut. :-\

Maybe this means its time for me to buy a couple of extra Kicks and Fuses to save for a rainy day.

Edit:  I was at a major national retailer just now and saw Kicks with leather sheaths for $19.99, so I grabbed a couple.  And a Fuse for good measure.  I'll just keep these in the package to look at and fondle.
