I really like the look and thin-ness of the Leek. I'm a sucker for the wave opening system too, so I'd likely find a way to take off the thumb stud and throw a zip tie on it. With the assisted opening, that sucker will be so fast...

Folder in the front pocket all the time. Izula in the jacket pocket. RAT-3 in the day bag/man purse/'puter bag. All are primarily for utility.
I carried a fixed on the belt for a while but with the work I do it kept hanging up on everything. switched back to a good folder
That's what holds me back about a fixed blade knife. Just seems like it would get hung up on stuff. Plus I'm always moving and doing stuff, so my shirt likely wouldn't keep it covered. With my current knife, it hides well and doesn't exactly "advertise" 1. that its even there at all, and 2. its size.
Here's a belt and Lok pics:

I have a Kershaw 1620. The speedsafe assited opening is awesome.

I have a leek for 10 years plus. I love it. I have benchmades, bokers, SOGs, etc. The Kershaw still gets the nod more often than not.
