I carry the Charge clipped in my front pocket.  When I carry the SURGE!!! it's horizontal on my belt.

I'd post pictures but I don't think anyone wants to see shots of my butt...

Belt sheath, usually vertical, right hip, near the back.

Occasionally I'll carry a Charge, Spirit or Zilla clipped to my pocket, but I prefer the sheath.  The Guppie has been clipped to either a belt loop with it's carabiner or inside the watch pocket of my jeans, away from other nasties like change and keys.

Same here, aside from the boy scout thing.  I have whatever tool I'm carrying just behind the beltloop on my right side vertical.

I carry my SURGE!!! on my belt, in its pouch vertically on the left front hip, with the extended bit set behind it and 2 quick release 1/4" adapters in the side sleeves of the SURGE!!! pouch.

My Charge is clipped to my front right pocket.

I'm pretty used to my SOG power pliers in my pocket too, but its a little awkward.

Skeletool, Charge, Kick or Wave clipped to right front pocket. I don't like belt sheaths.

I keep my Juice Pro on a lanyard clipped to a belt loop and hanging down into my right front pocket.  I've carried my Wave the same way.

Usually it was my modified Kick clipped to my right front pocket or my Core in the sheath on my right side at about 4 o'clock.

Then, I bought a Spirit. Now my Leatherman sits in my collection box, making sure it doesn't float away.

as I do a lot of sitting these days - Right hip, leather vertical sheath.

I've been known to hang tools off the back of the belt though.

My current EDC is the Charge TTI and it rides in the front right hand pocket of my pants on a pocket clip. This tool is light enough for pocket carry. I am also a big fan of the Surge. I carry this one in the belt pouch, right side of course. I tried a pocket clip but the Surge wanted to pull down my pants all the time.

I'm guessing she learned her lesson after she got fat the first time.


I'm wondering just how much of a knob I would look with four leather pouches around my belt (Zippo, Knife, Multi, Keys)

You make a good point.

Come, Wonderboy, we have shopping to do.

One of these days I am going to take a picture with as many sheaths as I can fit on my belt... hell if I get drunk enough I may even get a Batman costume to go with it and give everyone a right laugh!

It'll have to be a Micheal Keaton suit though, with the molded in muscles, but also include the patented Adam West girdle or else it likely won't be suitable for publication here or anywhere else...   :ahhh

My biggest opposition to Sheaths and things is the same as the one I have with Jewelery

It's just not cool when it gets caught on something, usually something moving fast.
