I have worn this under a heavy pack and as my daily belt. It sits flat to me and does not curl like other belts. The low profile allows me to wear while packing and there is no rubbing or bunching. I appreciate having the knife sharpening ability on me at all times. Reduces the need to carry a sharpening set in my pack. The buckle does not ride into my waste as I sit at work. I highly recommend this belt!
