I did a couple of days of diving experimenting with a new to me knife position and knife. The knife I used is the Wenoka Squeeze lock which is identical to the omer laser.
I've always worn a knife on my inner calf. What prompted me to experiment is that I figured since I'm always moving my legs it would be good to have them as streamlined as possible. Placing the knife on the inner calf greatly limits the possibility of entanglement so that wasn't an issue.
The first place other than the leg that the knife could go with little modification was the belt. All I had to do was reposition the weights. I had in mind two possible positions; one that I've seen Pipin Ferreras demonstrate which is at the small of the back, the other was directly on the side. In front positions are precluded because it interferes with doubling over when starting the dive unless the knife is placed horizontally. In my case there's no room for that because I have the powerhead pouch directly to the left of the buckle and I load the speargun on the hip to the right of the buckle. The Wenoka squeeze lock being small lend itself well to this experiment.
My considerations included ease of access and deployment, comfort, and streamlining as far as the possibility of the knife getting caught on anything. Particularly important is ease of access and deployment because I consider the knife an emergency tool. Braining and gutting fish can wait, being entangled with fishing line on the bottom at the end of your breath hold can't.
