what is the string for on the sheath?

You use it to secure the sheath to your leg. I like mine a lot. I have it attached to one of my packs.

The string is for fastening the knife/sheath to either the shoulder strap of a rucksack or to the thigh depending upon how you decide to wear the knife.

There is a hole in the bottom of the sheath and could be used to tie to your leg

Sorry, I didn't get a sheath. I just carry it in my pocket. Great knife though.

There is a rivet at the bottom of the sheath that would have to be removed in order to remove the plastic part. You might be better off just buying a leather sheath because if you remove the plastic, the only thing protecting you from the blade is a thin layer of cloth.

YES, It's kind of a holster type thing. I hang mine in the garage and do not use the sheath.

I'm going to guess yes it means the sheath. My sheath has no markings but the blade is marked olean ny.

You pull the wire through. Used a "makeshift" cradle to hold a reel of wire which allowed the wire to pull thru. It cut and removed the sheathing in one pull. May have to work on getting the setup right but once it is...... happy stripping!

The sheath is made of a rawhide like material, im assuming goat. I keep mine wiped down with a little mink oil. Same stuff you use for boots. Seems to keep it pretty waterproof. Have not needed to use any other maintenance on it.

The knife includes a nylon sheath with a plastic liner to prevent the knife from cutting the nylon. It has a snap closure around the handle and includes grommets and a small amount of para cord to tie the bottom to your leg. All in all the sheath is not the greatest quality bit I wouldn't let that deter me from buying the knife. It's a real workhorse and it's huge.

That will depend on how you intend to use it. THe sheath would seem a little bulky for around your neck.

I didn't see anything online. The original can be repaired or used to make a new one (saddle repair or cobblers would have the equipment or better yet there are people who can fashion custom fit sheaths out of Kydex, which is very desirable. Hope this helps.

I keep mine in the sheath, it probably just says that so they don't get sued if you cut yourself

Should just buy an aftermarket sheath on ebay. They're really nice and usually 20$, this one comes with black.

It came with a nylon sheath..It did not fit on my AK and the company would not take it back! I would not recommend them whatsoever!

No, the sheath is a hard plastic material called Kydex. The one that comes with the case is shaped like a triangle. It doesn't have the hook for cutting rope.

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.

You need a belt. Looking at the picture, the dark part in the uppermost, on the left is the sheath to run the belt through.
