Default Need advice on nice softail slim fork bag

I have a nice little fork/tool bag on my skin. It is 7 x3.5x 2.5 and just a little too small. I bought a 12 x 5 x3.5 but it is a little too wide. Was looking at this bag below.It is 10x 5 x 3.5. Was wondering if anyone found a fork bag they love for their slim?
Thanks

I have the Licks 10" tool bag. I'm happy with it. I mount it to the handle bars when I go on longer rides - it sits nicely there.

Generally do you leave it off the bike because it is r looks too big over the headlamp? I thought about mounting it under the light but I dont think it would open and close easily.
Thanks for the advice

Just don't need a tool bag with me all the time, I have a swingarm bag mounted for everyday use. When I need it mounting it to the handlebars allows for easy access and it doesn't obstruct my view.
