Greetings
I'd like to hear some of your descriptions of how you walk while wielding saber with the blade attached.   
For example, I don't want to drag or hold too "casually" or nonchalant. 
Thank you.

Selfish passion is unquenching.
What strength have you when you are a slave to your passions?
What power without strength of character?
To self centered rage, you will be chained.
The dark side is no victory.

The long path to peace is through balanced emotions.
The first step to gaining knowledge is recognizing your own ignorance.
Serenity is patient, not passionate satisfaction.
Find harmony by understanding chaos.
Become one with the force, which will never die.

Honestly, by making sure the blade is slightly shorter than leg length when clipped to the belt. Maybe try playing around with blade lengths, or even custom cutting one slightly shorter to give a comfortable size.

Here's an alternative way to walk with a lightsaber.

Here's a couple of members ideas from the past.  Smiley

Unfortunately cannot provide anymore as photobucket exchanged needed photos for that kitten a while back.  Roll Eyes

Placement of a covertec wheel above the switch closest to the emitter should provide a few extra inches for a dangling blade rather than attaching to the pommel area.

Most of the time I use a 30" or less blade so I can hang the saber from my belt on my waist using the covertech clip and it ends up being a few inches above the ground when I walk.  If I want to cosplay with a longer saber, I attach the belt diagonally across my chest and shoulder with the covertech clip and saber saber hanging on my back.  It is harder to manipulate the covertech clip that way and therefore not easy to release the saber.  I don't usually carry it in my hand unless it is ignited and I am taking part in a saber walk or parade with other saber wielders.  I prefer hanging from the covertech on my waist as it is easier to release and pose for pictures or show it to someone who is interested.
