Re: No. 7 - Sarcasm from a Moderator? Nowonder so many replies on this forum are immoderate.
As to the leg mount, I have been told that doing this is perceived to be uncool or trying too hard to be cool or some such snobbery. Hence my need for a new location.

Leg is good. Also serves as part of set up to hold poke spear to leg for when flounder is spotted. Mine clicks in the holster. It apparently came out once, so I bought a new one and use fishing line to connect it to the holder while it's in there (just enough line so it can also be taken out of the holder without breaking the line). And I now have it on 2 straps around my leg. This one won't be lost.

when someone laughs at you at least it'll be easy to reach

When you make decisions based on what others will think of you it is already too late.
Wherever you mount it consider being able to reach it with either hand and whether you can resheath it easily.

If you buy a Wenoka compact squeeze it comes with several mounting options, hose, grommets on BC or webbing and due to its locking mechanism can be mounted in any position. As far as location goes the idea is to be able to actually reach it if you need it. I have found the leg to be less than optimal YMMV. Good luck.

I keep some of my knives at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean, have one in the ocean off of Oahu and one somewhere in the muck at Athens Scuba Park. I have talked to my LDS about adding a loop or retractor to the inside of a BCD pocket to hook the knife. Until then, I'll keep one in the BCD pocket.
