So how do you place it into the sheath to make it work?
That makes much more sense. Thank you.

Yeah... rigid object attached to my body with a blade sticking out... no thank you.

Probably easier just to put thumb studs on the blade.

Doesn’t open as fast - these were used by guys who wanted that blade out *now*.
Would probably have just carried a sheath knife, like most of the Harley riders I see doing these days. At least, the guys with the matching jackets are doing that.
I am similarly inclined. My EDC carry has been with me since I got it many years ago from a factory (or distributor) rep who was taking down his booth at an NSGA show. It is an actual Swiss Army issue Victorinox Alox "Soldier" with an "86" date stamped on the blade, no bail (just a hollow rivet to put a line through) and regulation Swiss military shield. I thought it was a common as dirt SAK, only later on realizing that it was not a typical commercial model.
It is finally starting to show its age, but it still does what it always has; mundane tasks or unusual tasks matter not to it. It has been temporarily "lost" twice in the roughly 35 years I have carried it, and I was verklempt/forlorn both times. It now has a thin "paracord" lanyard and fob to reduce the likelihood that it will go missing again. I have occasionally wished that the blade did have a lock, but not enough to do anything about it.
