I do not wear a gut belt, but I have a different type of truck belt/reasuce harness. On my belt I carry a small bag w/ 40 ft of life safety rope with a carbiner on a figure 8 at the end. I also have another carabiner clipped to the belt as well. I usually slide the flat head axe into my belt and carry the haligan.

Over the last few years, I've changed the set up on my belt. I now carry my rope bag with a carabiner in my left pants pocket and on my belt I have two screw locking carabiners attached @ different points. I still slide a flat head or sledge hammer into my belt to free my hands for working or carrying another tool.
