I have only one CRKT, it's a F4-12. I only carried it when I went to people events like church, football games, concerts, parades and the like for some kind of security or peace of mind. Mostly because it was easy to have on your belt without outright displaying it. I turned the sheath sideways with some modification and it fit within the width of my belt so no one knew the otherwise.
