I have the same PFD, just wondering how did you attached it to the shoulder strap

With zip ties

[@rainerborgmann7326]

I was just wondering how you actually have the knife attached to the shoulder strap. Is it tied with a piece of cord, or does the jacket have a slot for it there?

Zip ties

What make and model is your river knife? Looking for a reliable single edged whitewater kayaking knife. Gerber River Shorty comes out of it sheath too easily - disappeared on day one on the Grand Canyon....

The NRS Co-pilot

[@adventureswithfrodo2721]

How does this work when you pull someone out of the water by their straps.

[@borealriver]

You could grab the strap above the knife, Or just slide your hand under the knife/strap and pull from there (Avoid grabbing only the knife so you wouldn't break it off the jacket) The knife is protected by a plastic sheath so it wouldn't cut the rescuer in this process!

[@payakadventures]

Only thing I don't like about that is if someone would need to grab me and haul me in, the rescuer could possibly cut themselves.

I bet any money I would accidentally slash my neck when grabbing it from shoulder position :D
