    Have any of you guys seen the blade attachment for the keybar? I'm curious as to how it would lock? I have the bottle opener on mine and it's more of a pain in the ass than anything simply because you can't get leverage.

    I don't have a keybar, but I have a GripKey. More decorative, and even though it looks bulky, when I clip it on my pocket with the keys inside, I barely notice it. $24, there are mini options, which is what I have.

    I still like my keybar solely for keys. I just found the blade option pointless

    Cobras are nice. The reason any belt sags though is the tensile strength/construction of the material. Doesn't matter if it's leather, cordura, etc or what clasp style (cobra, standard or rigger).

    The most common would be a reinforced leather belt for multiple reasons. 1. looks subtle (not tactical/suspecting). 2. strength (leather with reinforcement or double leather is stronger than any cloth/cordura)

    Cobra/Rigger styles are great if that's your style (5.11 pants, etc) and if you want to scream 'Tacticool'. I have a few, not dogging on them, but for CCW I tend to stay away from clothing that makes me look like a cop or potential carrier. Also, Cobra belts are great, until your jeans loops are wide enough to slide the belt around your waist, or even slide through the slots on a OWB holster. They would only be ideal for a IWB setup.

    Best of both worlds? Ares Aegis belt, slide through buckle design (easy for all pants/IWB/OWB holsters etc. Reinforced and rigid construction ensuring it doesn't sag. endless adjustability with it's pass-through design.

    I picked up one of those machinists wooden tool boxes from Harbor Freight for all the EDC extras. Picked it up this weekend during their sale and 20% off.

    I went with a Thompson Tactical belt. Handmade leather belt. Great quality and build, especially for the price. Plus it looks like a normal belt, and not something out of a 5.11 magazine.

    Simple: wallet, Ruger LCR in Nemesis holster, Case Mini Copperlock, Yota key with a keychain my dad carried for as long as I remember. Have a different setup for when concealment isn't as important but doesn't quite fit tin the pocket, haha.

    Also look up stormrider gear if you are looking for a good belt. I have a couple of warlords that I wear and have run heavy with some classes I have taken. Also, a big fan of guncraft holsters.
