How do you carry your stiletto?

Post by Ramzeez »

I’m new to the site and have been reading all your comments from time to time. You guys are hilarious!.
Anyways, I order my first Stiletto. I purchased an 11” AB from Tiny’s. Can’t wait till it gets here. I want to get some sort of pouch or holster to carry it. What do you guys recommend? How do you carry your?

Welcome
Mine are carefully stored in assorted tackle boxes, glove compartments, tool boxes, the car trunk or wherever else I left them. [So I can always find at least one when I need it. Stilettos do not make good "using knives" since heavy use can damage them quickly.
To carry one use any sheath that fits, or "dedicate" one pocket to the Stiletto and nothing else.

I agree with them a stiletto is not a very good user knife unless you are using it for self defense.
If your going to cary a stiletto your best bet would be to cary it in a sheath on your belt they have a tendency to open in your pocket if the lock is weak.

Mr. Joint-man,

Carry a switch in your "Back pocket?"
You may regret that decision in the end...

Just make sure that you have long tshirts that no matter the arm position will cover your sheath.....

I duct tape one on each hand that way I can carry extra stuff like fishing line,pencils,a ruler and misc sized toothpicks both wood and plastic. After all as a professional one must never be unprepared.

I tape my 15 inch stiletto to Mr. Happy, that way, if the man in blue searched me he just thinks I am VERY happy to see him :shock:
Are we having fun yet?

Only if it doesn't have a good safety.

I always make my women carry all the weapons. It gives them a false sense of security, and a L.A.W.S. launcher would get tangled up in my cape, anyway.

The exception to the rule, of a dedicated pocket. In the back pocket, a wallet can help keep it in the same position, and easier to grab. Also reduces the flex, bend, crush, accidental firing effect of pocket carry. But only if it rides next to the wallet and doesn't slide between you and the wallet or wallet and the outside.

tr,

When I wear my cape I am fearless and have no need for weapons of any kind. 8) And I can fly from the top of the tallest building to the sidewalk in a matter of seconds! :wink:
I collect springblades but I carry my "thumbers."
