    On my belt/ bumbag and I normaly have a smaller knife in the bag as well. A good pouch is essential for the safty of the knife and the owner in the event of accidental slips and falls. If I'm pig hunting I carry a large jungle knife on my Pighuntimg belt along with my pig sticker. My 2 cents worth.

    Damn right about that. A freak accident while thrusting a leg up to climb up a steep bank out of a small creek saw a blade disappear six inches into and straight back out of my thigh several years ago. Was a good clean wound and thankfully had missed the femoral so did a quick patch job with the first aid kit and then hard slogged a compass bearing for two hours to get out to the car and then drove five hours back to Auckland to go to the A&E (ten stitches). Stuffed up an otherwise good weekend in the bush and as I severed a nerve I haven't been able to feel my left knee ever since.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
