Is this knife too heavy to clip onto my jogging suit when I'm walking? Or do I need to wear an extra light weight belt to support it?

It is pretty light so as long as your waistband is snug you should be fine without the extra belt

I've never had an issue with this knife and the sheath while wearing light clothes; however the clothes should be semi-tight on you or supported (i.e. tie the string on your shorts). There have been some answers suggesting a light belt but I have found the string on my running shorts is good enough if you have a strong pull. You won't give yourself a "wedgie" though the shorts do rise a little bit before the sheath gives. This is a really good overall knife in my humble opinion and I enjoy carrying it regardless of what I am wearing or where I am going since it is very versatile. The knife was my first purchase from Cold Steel but it will be far from my last purchase.

You should be fine, however, this does seem a bit extreme for jogging wear.

You should be just fine. I think in the end you will be much happier with a cold steel recon one folding knife that will fit in your pocket even though it's much heaver

The belt clip will hold well on a leather belt or a cargos/chino pant. I would doubt if it would hold on to a jogging suit. The knife + sheath is not too heavy, but the lack of a strong surface on the jogging suit to clip it on to, would be the point to be considered. I would suggest the usage of a belt to support and secure the knife and its clip.

The sheath has 10 hollow rivets around it's edge. The holes are 1/4" diameter. If I wanted to carry it wearing my jogging suit I'd use a chain or para-cord, or leather lace and hang it around my neck, handle down. It could be hung under either arm or straight down the middle of your chest. It would ride comfortably and be easy to draw, bring into play, and save having to wear a belt.

No one thing that is nice about this knife is that it is very light and sturdy it is designed to be at your side and it feels like nothing is there.

Not sure if you have your ccw,but it would fit fine tuck inside your jogging suit pants. Its not a heavy knife at all.

I will not use the belt clip. Because of the size of the thing, when you sit, the pedometer jabs me at the waist. I have a bit of a gut, but I think this wouldn't be comfortable for a slim person. Even if getting jabbed with it when sitting wasn't an issue, I think just getting up and down or bending over may cause the clip to slip/move. I keep mine in my pocket, attached to a pedometer leash. However, with it being so inaccurate in counting steps and freezing up -- I hardly care if I lose it now. I'm much happier with my Fitbit. I'm not easy to please, but I wouldn't recommend this product. Too frustrating.Sticker on pedometer says "Made in China." I will not use the belt clip.

The sheath you see looks the same on both sides... There is NO belt clip, slot or loop. The sheath clicks the knife in and holds it pretty secure. It has a cord attached and can be worn around the neck or using the side holes in the sheath it could be lashed to.... Whatever. Hope this helps.

The sheath only come with one belt loop, I tried it didn't feel comfortable. The way the axe come out I didn't like it, on my belt. It has 3 snaps 2 that wrap over and a snap in the end near the back side point of axe. I put a cantilever clip on it and clipped it to my day pack. Felt a lot safer taking out after that.The sheath is good for a canvass type. I will make a leather one down the road some day. Hope that helps, have fun be safe.

The clip is designed mostly for belts. It opens so if you insist you could drop it onto your waistband, but what's left inside your pants is kind of bulky. It's not ideal for that application.

Hello, I think this is really too heavy to run with. If you put it tight enough, it should stay, but once the velcro ages and wears down, it will not stay due to its weight.

The knife comes with a plastic sheath and a section of parachord for a lanyard. I haven't seen a belt clip for it. Also, if you got regular size hands the knife is small. You'd be better off with the kabar tdi.

It's the width and weight of the knife that is different from other models normally carried. With the knife on its side in your pocket, it's a couple of inches "high", so you don't want to have a lot of other "stuff" in there with it, such as a cell phone. I daily carry the smaller version of this knife in regular cotton pants or jeans + my wallet in left front pocket with no problems. This model is just a little heavy for me to daily carry in a pocket, that's why I got the belt holster for it. I carry this knife on special occasions when I think I might need the extra tools this knife has. It CAN be carried in a normal size pocket, but I wouldn't count on carrying a lot more in the same pocket. If you're concerned about "lumps" or wear super tight fitting pants, you will have a big lump with this knife. I gladly put up with the lump and weight in my pocket, though, for the tools and utility this knife provides.

It's certainly not a lightweight, but its weight has never bothered me. And you can be sure that's a tough knife that isn't going to break on you!

As far as pocket folders go, it is on the larger end of the spectrum in both size and weight but not so bad as compared to 300 line. It is a cool looking knife but, more importantly, it is incredibly durable and is one of the best performing folders I have ever had. I've always been wary of liner locking mechanisms but haven't had any complaints with this one. To answer your question, I don't think it would be an issue if carried in your purse. I have to wear slacks and suits every day to work yet I still carry my knife clipped in my pocket without any issues or annoyances. I would look into the partially serrated version for uses you are describing though.

I typically clip the base to my tie or messenger bag strap when I'm commuting to/from work. I'm not sure it'd be good for jogging as it's not really comfortable to clip to you collar of shirt sleeve.

That's how I carry it & it rides fine. There are a couple of after market sheaths that sit better & have better retention. The one I have costs more than the knife but I think it's worth it. Let me know if you are interested.

You need a belt, it has a loop that you could probably use to clip it but no clip.

It is a nice Knife, heavy enough to do any cutting task, not terribly bulky or heavy either, the clip on mine is extremely snug when in my jeans almost to the point of hard to get out which is good so I don't have to worry about loosing it. On the other hand it is a bit hard to get out on the fly, but I your adrenaline is pumping you probably wouldn't even notice. It flips open and locks with authority and mine was razor sharp out of the box. Hope this was helpful.

Hi. I've had no problem wearing this without a belt. I find that the clip hold well and does not slip. I personally like it and would purchase another one if I needed one. Hope you like it as much as I do. Good luck.

Tom, I know nothing about the double loop belt. I carry the Kimber Solo on my side inside my pants or my ultra carry the same in the small of my back. Sorry I couldnt be more help. I would suggest you call Kimber directly.

The blade feels secure, but with its weight it is a bad idea to try and swing it around, if you do the will more than likely come off, its a display piece, not a toy, its fine to carry around and hang but it Is NOT meant to be a toy or cosplay item
