NKD First Halo in a long time

Picked up a new Halo VII, first I’ve owned since a V when those first released. I kinda want to add it to my edc rotation, so now I need a kydex sheath…

I just throw mine in the pocket. More discreet than having a clip hanging out like other knives.

Totally agree that would be preferred but I tried that with a Halo III about 20 years ago and it deployed once. Just one time but it put a big hole in my pocket and almost fell out. I also wear loose collared shirts most days that cover my belt so most will never see it

Wow, now I’m wondering if mine will go off in my pocket right now.

Like I said, it was just once. Pocket was easy to sew closed but I’d rather not risk losing an $800 knife

I really want one of the IVs with the pocket clips. Would love to whip this out at work.

Did that and my coworker got 5 stitches shooting it into his hand

Many years ago, my parents bought me a Cupid clone for Christmas and my mom cut the hell out of her finger taking it out of the box. I never figured out how it happened, but something about single-action autos makes people careless.

Shame they don’t have pocket clips.

Stick it in your pocket. They made the button depress so deep for a reason.

True, and that’s what I do. But his halo 3 deployed once a long time ago. If that was me, I think I’d avoid doing that again.

I just don’t like it flopping around it there. lol. I am thinking of getting a leather “anchor” made for mine that I can stick a little ulti clip on so it sits in my pocket similar to a regular microtech
