[@nothingbutknives2286]

A Tek Lok in appendix carry might be your best bet. Lots of people also just forgo the clip entirely and slip it in their pocket for EDC. So long as you don't have to go into a crouch a lot, that should be pretty secure.

[@gatorbite3351]

One thing to know with Scout / small of the back carry is that is you ever fall on your back or are thown to your back, you can suffer a catastrophic spinal injury. As a retired Tac medic, I always taught that no gear should be directly over the spine for this reason.

[@nothingbutknives2286]

That's a good tip. Generally when we scout carry the knife ends up more to one side than the other just because of belt loop placement, but spinal injury is definitely a good danger to keep in mind when gearing up.

[@stephen8433]

@@nothingbutknives2286 I agree. Retired chiropractor.

[@TrilobitesRTasty]

@@TrilobitesRTasty It's not a legitimate risk. Show me multiple incidents of this happening with a knife in scout carry. You're more likely to crack your head open and get a TBI than to have a catastrophic spine injury.

[@LarryGanz]

It's like Advanced Knife Bro is your twin brother!

[@Daddy53751]

I’m a huge fan of horizontal carry for fixed blades. Although I don’t buy knives or sheaths as I make my own. I actually prefer horizontal scout carry for large field knives for a couple reasons. 1. Puts the knife in an easily accessible, out of the way spot. 2. In the field, the strong side position is taken up by a pistol, and having the knife weak side carry just isn’t as easy to get at. Great video 👍🏻

[@nothingbutknives2286]

Thanks for the input. This will come in handy next time somebody flames us for suggesting larger knives for horizontal carry.

[@Daddy53751]

@@nothingbutknives2286 to me, weak side vertical carry is, for the most part one of the most inconvenient field carry methods out there. Much like with a D/A automatic knife, (which is absolutely the most useful pocket knife out there) the scout carry is awesome because you can be holding something with your weak hand, be able to get your blade out, do the cutting, and be able to put it back ONE HANDED. Try that vertical weak side carry.

What is the best Actual Belt to wear with most EDC horizontal knife systems??. I just bought my first Fixed Blade - it’s a Kizer Smolt . I picked it because it looked small and Dependable for Horizontal EDC .

[@nothingbutknives2286]

The Smolt is awesome. Unfortunately, there is no perfect answer to the belt question, because sheath belt loops are not standardized in any way shape or form. We often change our belt to best fit the knife we will be carrying. The most popular belt here at NBK is the 5.11 Tactical 1.5" TDU belt.

[@WhiteDeVil3]

Hey there, I've got a Glock FM81 knife and I've been looking for some sheath to wear it horizontal - are there horizontal sheaths that'd fit such a knife (6.5" blade) at all or do I need to look for something custom? Alternatives I think would be forward leaning belt-worn sheath (that blade is a bit too long to wear it vertical, for me anyway) but I'd really like to figure out some horizontal sheath.

[@nothingbutknives2286]

That's a tough one because it's such a long blade, but you could try Ka Bar's Cordura sheaths. Pretty sure they make one that fits their 7" models like the USMC Bowie. The only other option I think of us besides that is an after market custom maker like Armatus.

[@trussmonkey5910]
