How does the sheath fit on your belt? (Drop down/hang-down, or along the profile of the belt, or both?) Is the sheath cloth?

Sheath is thin leather or hide.. Belt goes right through it so it both follows the belt and drops down slightly

Heavy duty plastic clip that hangs straight down with flap on top. material appears to be a ballistic nylon.

The sheath is entirely nylon. There are two belt openings. You may wear the sheath vertical or horizontal. The tool seems to flop around when carried upright. On the sideways carry, if your belt is too thick, it will be difficult to holster the tool.

Hello Guru. I double checked that portion in which you are asking about. it should fit with little to no problem. The "belt" loop is +/- 4 inches and should fit a standard pant/5.11 belt. The only issue I have with this sheath is that I have the older style very thick handle and the straps that hold the snaps to secure the knife in the sheath itself are to short and will require some modification to work. But other than that small issue, this sheath is what I have been looking for,. Hope this helps

I also am having the same problem. I called the customer service number & she said to make a loop and get it just right and it comes right off. Not on mine. There doesn't seem to be a slot where the old belt can slide off. Help?? Anyone??

Mine slips down a little, but not enough to cause a problem. I just move it back up a little before I fasten my belt.

Sure. The sheath has two holes to thread a belt through. The holes at the bottom can be used to run paracord through for keeping close to the body. That keeps it from flopping around.

Yes, sheath can be worn in either vertical or horizontal position on belt. Although if worn horizontally it will only fit a 1 1/4" belt.

Try loosening the screws that hold the sheath to the belt loop. That was a problem mine had too. Almost to much retention.

I like mine very much. I carry it handle down on the belt, with the sheath slightly modded.

Hello. I bought this same knife recently. When you place the knife in the sheath it does fit snugly and securely into the sheath with a locking kind of action. I am not sure about what it would do upside down. It would probably stay in place, but I am not positive about what it would do after jarring around. For the price of the knife, it is high quality in materials and construction.

Not as it is-it's a Kydex sheath with a nylon drop down belt loop-could be adapted to if you remove the attachment-and /or lash it to your gear

I never dropped my sheath. The sheath is cheap plastic but probably wont crack for reasonable drop.

I believe that the sheath is adjustable for both horizontal and vertical carry. I am working now and will try to remember to look when I get home but I think it is possible

I can only talk about the belt loop... but because of it I will not buy one of these with a clip.That belt loop they put on the is tight, but like any leather it has some give. Once your belt is through it the holster will stay in position easily and is snug to your side. I prefer that sort of retention with everything I own, so I would recommend the belt loop.A note for the makers of this product: I really wish a slot was cut in the middle of the loop so the belt loop of the pants can be placed inside and weaved in with the belt so the holster stays in that position, and to provide an opportunity to utilize that piece of "real estate" on the pants.

In response to your question, I am not sure why you want to put a sheath in a holster. My sheath, however, has two straps on the back that go perpendicular to the normal belt loop so it can be put on in that orientation if you like. To be honest, I haven't been terribly happy with the blade quality (it has bent in 3 places from non-stress activities) and I would recommend going with a Condor Bushcraft knife or a Morakniv. It is better value, especially the Condor. I still use my BGrylls knife but only as a junk knife. Happy hunting.

I doubt it would fit horizontally, but I have this sheath mounted vertically on a 2 inch duty belt and there is still slack in the strap.

Yes, the sheath has a nice loop for a belt, it its designed to fit on a belt. There is also a thigh strap at the bottom, so it is connected at your belt and leg. Hope this helps!

The knife came with a cyote tan nylon sheath. It isn't a bad sheath but a little bulky and only application is a vertical draw. It does have an interior liner that protects the sheath from cutting through the edge side. This sheath is adequate for belt wear or attaching to your gear but an upgrade will probably be desired.
