Seems too large and heavy to wear on your belt. Wouldn't a BK-16 be better suited for this?

Its longer then the BK16 but it really seems to weight the same. I love it. The length does not really bother me but I mainly use it to carry in our hunting bag. So that's really a personal question of preference. Hope this helps.

It's no heavier ka bar usmc. It's a lot lighter than you would expect I don't think it'll get in your way on your belt it's a great knife.

Actually this knife is the largest fixed blade survival knife that I would carry. The BK 9 is definitely too heavy to carry on your belt for a long journey. But, I have walked 5 miles or more with this on my belt and I wasn't feeling like I wished I hadn't. I feel that It isn't too heavy or long to use on a decently long journey. That being said I think the BK 16 is a little lighter, but isn't as good for batoning or other tasks where the longer blade on the BK 7 is better suited, it does however have it's place also though. Take care and go ahead and get it or better yet, get both the BK 7 and 16 ! :) CDR Actually this knife is the largest fixed blade survival knife that I would carry.

My BK7 is for my BOB. I don't intend on wearing it on my belt. I use the BK2 on my backpack shoulder strap. It's oriented upside down on my chest.

The BK7 is definitely not a pretend combat knife. It is what it says it is; a very capable combat tool that enables you to do many things a smaller knife simply cannot do. You can cut down small trees, create a camp shelter, split wood logs for your campfire, in addition to protecting yourself with it. What's more, a person requiring such a tool will also usually wear suspenders to help keep their pants up because of all the other field tools he/she is carrying. The comfort comes from knowing you have the tools needed to do the job.

Honestly I prefer a larger heavier blade and it is comfortable its sheeth is nice and distributes the weight very well. It also has a hole for 550 paracord to strap to your thigh as well which helps a lot. I love it and I also love the BK-9 which is heavier. It is all personal preference but for a survival situation I would use the BK-9 or BK-7 but I leave for the Marines in five months and this is a wonderful knife.

It's a large unit so it's very powerful. If you are bicycling I think a smaller belt hook style would work better. This is for a long shot (15-20 feet away) and large groups of people or a bear. If you are using in an urban setting, I would go a little smaller for ease of access and storage in a pocket or belt clip. JMHO

You could rig something up through the belt loop but it would not be practical for the size of the pouch.

it's big enough to use for that however you will likely need to use a different holster and put Velcro on your holster to make it secure.

Depends on how small, but it has a lot of range. One could always sew part of the belt into a loop to make it smaller.

I would go with this one just to be sure. If it is a bit too big, you can at least fit some accessories/mags in there. It's not terribly bulky or heavy.

To be honest, it's quite heavy due to the thick leather and quality materials. It depends on how long would you be walking with it.

Most likely because the holster fabric is double stitched thick elasticized fabric w/ 1" retainer strap. Enough room for a bigger item.

Yes that is why the holster is designed the way it is. You will have no problem unless your pockets are stuffed with heavy items. I have used mine without a belt inside my jeans with no problems.

I'm a big guy and it fits me fine.But it makes it hard to spin the bag around on one shoulder to access stuff in it so I rarely use it.Rarely use the waist strap either, unless I'm hiking in really rough terrain.Use both when I'm visiting someplace that crime could be an issue.

Possibly. Depennds on why you want it. It's pretty big and I wouldn't want to go on long walks with it.

Yes but it's made of fabric so it's not as sturdy. Also it would be to bulky to wear on your belt. I purchased it to have it for my purse.

Little large for that. Maybe if on back but still a little large for carrying sideways. I don't believe the sheath is designed for it either.

I love the remora holsters but you need some room in your pants. For the bulldog get a nice carry belt like the 511.

I personally think it is quite big and heavy. Sometimes I have to take it off my wrist and put it in my pocket but I cannot train without so I deal with it.

It's a lil heavy but I'm a big guy so it doesn't bother me. It depends on what you're going to use it for and how you carry it.
