Knife on bino harness?

[Tony Nile]

It's really hard to skin a deer with a Glock.

He said it was partially for self defense

I'll preface my questions with this: I've never hunted outside of AZ where its legal to carry a pistol during an archery hunt.

Why not carry a pistol? Is that not legal everywhere?

I don't care for the weight or legalities across different states.

I just keep it there cause it’s handy.

Love my kit bag with the bino harness

I don't see why it cant work. My preference for a handy knife is a small folding knife in my zipped chest pocket of my shirt. If for some reason I found myself without one of my favorite shirts with a chest pocket I could very easily slip my small EDC knife in my marsupial harness on the back mesh pocket or the front zip pocket.
I wouldn't need or care for a knife of any size bigger than my small folder strapped to my chest or harness. I got too much junk in the truck for anything more. But if I was thinking about it then I would try it out. Worst case you take it off and put it in your pack.

I start here then fit my backpack over it.

LIBERTY!

I carry one of these clipped in my pocket (better than a folder). Gray area in commiefornia since it's a fixed blade but my argument is that it's technically not concealed since the but of the handle sticks above the pocket, also makes for a smooth draw stroke. I tried on the bino harness and could never get it situated comfortably. Also in the midst of chaos I'd rather stab my own leg than my chest or mid section.

Nothing wrong with belt and suspenders…Obi Wan Nairobi sported one when he took care of some Al Shabaab punk-asses…God Bless him…

I will try and get a picture tonight. I keep a speedgoat in its Kydex sheath in the back pocket of my bino harness. Many hunts it doesn’t do anything except open honeybuns but it’s nice to have if I need it.

 

[TaperPin]

I keep a Gerber Ultralight in the pack for general purpose and skinning use. I can’t even imagine packing a fixed blade. I wouldn’t want to stand in the way of anyone packing whatever brings their heart joy I just can’t relate.

 

[arlenmyles]

Is anyone carrying a knife on/in their bino harness? I was thinking a fixed blade may be great there for self defense as well as field use.

Bonus if you have any pics. I run the Kuiu harness.

I run a 3in REK Ember with an ulticlip or mummert clip on my SG bino harness for that exact reason. If I get separated from my pack I have my inreach, knife, ferro rod and headlight on me. Never worried about loosing it.

I started carrying one out west . but tree stand hunting doesn't require a knife unless you're cutting into a summer sausage

 

[repins05]

I run a knife on the bottom of my bino harness. I attached it to the molle with cord. I also tie the knife to my harness in case it ever came out of the sheathe. I carry the same knife on my belt. Two fer.
