Frequently Asked Questions

What are the best ways to carry a tactical knife on your person?

Optimal tactical knife carry involves placement on your plate carrier (support side, recessed), belt (support side, opposite pistol), or scout carry ('Alamo style') at the small of your back. The best method depends on your gear and personal needs for accessibility.

How should a tactical knife be mounted on a plate carrier?

A tactical knife can be mounted vertically on the support side of your plate carrier, recessed behind the front plate. This position keeps it accessible for quick draws while minimizing interference with your primary weapon or other gear.

What is 'Alamo style' knife carry?

'Alamo style' or scout carry refers to mounting a knife horizontally at the small of your back. This is a concealed option often used in tactical roles, though it's typically only accessible with one hand.

Why is support-side knife placement important?

Support-side placement for a tactical knife is crucial for quick transitions, allowing you to create space or switch weapon systems efficiently without compromising your primary hand's function.
