You mentioned shoulder carry with a handgun. If this knife is to be carried in conjunction with the handgun, talk to the various leather makers about getting a combo holster, either for concealment, open-duty or hunting. They usually are a little (non-sarcastic little) pricier than you might expect for a gun-only rig, but if it is well secured, it is no more in the way that the hnadgun is if carried vertically, and is readily available to either hand if carried butt down. (I have one rig that carries a Hi-Power or a Commander-class 1911 and a Ka-Bar under my left arm, with three mags under the other, and it is no more noticable than the same rig without the knife would have been.)<br><br>Also, you may be carrying your knife on your hip too far foward. Set the front edge of your sheath just behind your trouser seam, and it might ride easier. <br><br>My biggest advise is to stay away from the calf sheaths you find sometimes- the [censored] things look as sexy as it gets, but they end up around your ankle in about ten steps, unless they are built into knee-length boots or your pants.
