I'm looking for a decent fixed blade that I can attach to my belt horizontally on my weak side in case I'm unable to get to my gun. Doesn't need to be a crocodile dundee knife or a big bowie knife. Just looking for something to replace the folder that I have due to the time it takes to unclip this one from my pocket and open it up and get it ready to strike. I want something I can grab and pull out in one swift movement have it and ready to go. I have a lot of fixed blades but none that I can attach to my belt horizontally in a concealed manner.

I carry this CRKT: https://www.knifecenter.com/item/CR2860 ... ag-handles

The sheath can be worn vertical or horizontal.

Points awarded for pics that specifically show what this OP asked for - a horizontal mount. A knife and one or more sheaths nesting on a tarp with other unrelated equipment or in a photogenic bed of woodland twigs and leaves does not give a good feel for how it is actually worn and accessed.

I find this to be an obstacle generally with online sources. Very often I have to go to purchasers' pics on Amazon rather than the seller's pics, to get an idea of how an object really looks and functions.

I have a K-Bar. It was not horizontal so I bought a sheath from NSR Tactical. Now NSR sales the knife with the horizontal sheath. There are several people who sale a horizontal sheath for the TDI.

I picked up one if these recently on a whim. Impressed so far, especially considering that it's $20. Sheath is decent as well.

I grabbed one of these. https://www.sogknives.com/instinct-g10-satin.html the main appeal to me is it's small size and the sheath can be carried horizontal vertical diagonal IWB or OWB. i ordered it online and it should be here tomorrow. If I don't like it, then it's no big loss as I'm a bit of a knife collector and literally have a couple hundred knives. I'll just add it to my colelction

Several good threads here.

Horizontal sheath for full size Kabar. Either with or without fire starter.

Thinking about one of these for my Kabar.

wow lots of good suggestions!

I'd LIKE to use this knife since its a S&W but the holster is leather and vertically mounted. maybe if i can find someone who does custom kydex or polymer i can get a IWB sheath made for it.

this was more of a joke before anyone starts yelling "Tacticool" lol. its just a really cool knife i've had forever and never really used. it's way too big for what I wanna do with it. the smaller knives like the SOG Instinct or the Crawford Kasper or a Clinch Pick or something like one of these.
