Forgive me if this has already been covered elsewhere. I just picked up a 3" Winoka knife and want to attach it to my bcd. I want it to be easily accessible but prefer not to sliice anythiing vital (equipment or person). Was thinkink of using the supplied "rivet thingies" to position it transversally on the cumberbun. Feedback? Thanks.

That's what I did. Or rather had my lds do. I had them imitate how the knife had been positioned on my balanced BCD.
 
I put mine vertically next to the "Zeagle". It's a Ranger but same idea...

Good suggestions, thanks.

I logged my question using a Kobo Vox and the spell checker wasn't working very well apparently. Also, apologies to the knife manufacturer... Wenoka (not Winoka). And Mr. Zeagle... I love my Stiletto!!! (and I finally got around to ordering the yellow weight pocket thingies)

Diversteve - that location looks... a little bit out of the way. Maybe you're more flexible than me. : )
Capt.Gene - yessir, I was thinking of the upper left shoulder strap too. There are some fabric loops there that would work pretty well.
I am attaching two photos. One illustrates the knife directly on the cumberbun (perhaps like farsidefan1...).
I think, though, near the pocket like in the second photo would work well with a knife this size. Anyone see a down side?

I also have my other knife attached to my inside left calf.

Thanks.
