K-Sheath Clip- New Titanium Alloy Clip Fast Scabbard Clip for Kydex Sheath (Left and Right)

Product Information

The sheath that ships with the Ramadi is extremely versatile. It can be used in left or right horizontal or vertical carry. Like many of the knives in this article, I wish the sheath sat lower in the vertical configuration, but that doesn’t seem to be something most knife companies are considering. It needs to have a dual hilt, finger choil, or finger guard to prevent your hand from slipping as you stab or puncture.

As for the horizontal carry aspect, there’s a little bit of nuance to discuss: You can use the straps it ships with to carry the Alala on your belt. There are a series of holes on the belt strap that let you tighten it, and it’s fairly easy to do since it’s fastened with a phillips-head screw. The Alala sheath is a little different, but it is also Tek-Lok compatible if you like the knife, but not the horizontal carry system.. High Quality - The VG10 Damascus steel blade and solid stainless steel skull make this a durable, high quality push knife that is more than just looks. Many times people buy a folding knife for concealed carry because the law prohibits other style knives. A folding knife is also easier to pass off as a tool at work or other places people might freak out by seeing a large fixed blade knife. Both fixed and retractable blades have their merits, so select a blade based on your planned use of the knife.

Mounting a carry option: easy mode

Both knives come in a kydex sheath with a single button strap, which isn’t exactly ideal for the belt, but for knives this light, it works pretty well. Since this type of blade comes to a fine point, the tip is prone to chipping off with heavy use. If this style is used as strictly self-defense, heavy use should not be a problem and the benefit of an extended cutting surface should outweigh the fragility of the tip.

The cleaver style blade of the Hoglet is made from Off-Grid’s very capable Cryo D2 steel. This steel offers good edge retention and toughness and a moderate price. I prefer it to S30V for survival or hard use knives, because it is easier to sharpen and less likely to chip when doing actual work. It is also less expensive. The length of your concealed carry knife will also be determined by what is legal in your area. Folding or Fixed Blade Concealed Carry Knife?There are two sheath options for the Rat 3. The cheaper option is the basic nylon sheath pictured below. The other option is a kydex sheath with the Tek Lok. Both options allow you to carry the Rat 3 horizontally or vertically. Have you ever thought that it is a hassle to take of your entire belt to remove your knife and sheath? Or that your belt loop is too short to allow for wearing the knife comfortably? Or that it is too short to allow you to sit down comfortably? While this fixed blade can be used for other projects—such as trimming roofing tile or opening boxes—it’s most ideal for drywall, given its slim nose, which allows it to make the accurate cuts that a larger option might not allow. A retractable utility knife can be used for some tasks with drywall, such as tapering drywall edges for super smooth joints.
