How secure is the sheath? does it have a "click" sound when you insert the blade in?

There is a distinct click when I sheath the blade. & by far one of the tights hugs on a blade I have. I have turned the knife upside down on mine & shook it several times without it falling out.

The click is definitely there. It takes a purposeful draw to remove the blade.

It is very secure...you will feel the click but not hear it. The rubberized handle makes it quiet.

It is secure and does click like most of the cold steel secure Ex sheaths. Nothing to worry on that front :)

Mine is very secure and would carry the knife upside down. The knife does rattle somewhat, however.

It's actually a hard, decent and tough sheath that you can adjust the draw tension on...a nice feature in my opinion....comes in handy depending on your method of carry...if you wanted it upside down you can adjust the sheath tension a bit tighter so it won't fall out., less for blade down carry.

It does, how ever it's very stiff, you might want to just leave it in the sheath. Nice knife, I'm enjoying mine!

I've yet to have loss of grip. I can see your concern but so far this tool has performed beautifully... on wish I could say the same for the sheath.

Yes, and it is a nice one. Word of advice: lube up the blade with a good oil or gun grease BEFORE inserting it into the sheath the FIRST time to minimize the internal spring from scratching the blade. Really good bayonet setup.

No. I had to take some cardboard and electrical tape to mine to make it feel secure enough to carry around. The problem is the open bottoms, a major design flaw of the sheath.

It does not come with a sheath. You are able to open one handed, but at first it may be a little stiff. Just needs to be broke in. You are also able to flick the blade open with w swift wrist movement.

Quite easily. The "latch" simply sets in a small detent with spring pressure. You could remove the knife from the sheath with a quick, firm motion...no real need to press the release.

Mine came with the Leather Sheath, and I prefer the leather. The snap lets you know it locked in and is more sturdy than the nylon on my belt. Plus, I don't have the noise everytime I get out my tool.

There are two straps that snap. I only keep one of them snaped. The knife does lock into the sheath, so it doesn't seem like you have to snap it.

Zytel sheath has a lock in it. So the knife will stay in the sheath even when not snapped. It's not a super tight lock, just enough to keep it in the sheath.

Just pull. It is a "friction" type sheath - perhaps yours is just tight, or maybe there's a bit of glue or something there. Be careful - it's sharp.

Yes. It has a hard plastic insert inside the sheath to protect it from the blade.

It's very secure. You have to pull on it to remove it from the sheath. I love it it's very nice and high quality.

Mine is a little tight but comes out. I don't see any release on the sheath. The knife only goes in one way. If you or someone else put it in upside down with a lot of force, it could easily jam in the sheath

yes. it has like a stretch elastic sides to it. the sheath works well. my leatherman however after little usage has had one of the locking deals break off completely. i haven't gotten around to trying to return it yet though. it came off and looks like a little thin stick thing, that i guess is what locks the blade. but i fit the leatherman and the accessories inside it well. maybe be carefull of the elastic holders on both sides as stuff might slip out( tool extender, or mini maglight type flash light ).
