I have the "first generation" which does not have the pommel at the end of the handle so I can only speak with certainty about that model. It has a kydex sheath and there is no pocket. Having said that I do think the newer generation has a very similar sheath.

Glass reinforced nylon. No pocket. The BK2 is one of the greatest survival knives ever, but I don't recommend this sheath that comes with it. I don't know anyone that likes it. The Becker BK22 is the exact same knife as the BK2 but with a much better sheath. Check it out!

This is the one with the glass filled nylon sheath without a pocket. It's like a hard plastic, probably why it's a little cheaper.

Kydex, I will say the sheath isn't the greatest but it dose the job. Id give it a 7/10

I don't know what material the sheath is made of. It has a hard finish so I don't think it is nylon, and it has no pocket.

Sheath fits it just fine. It is adequate, not as good as a kydex sheath, but it serves the purpose.

Nylon with a plastic sleeve insert. I know the sheath gets a bad rap online, but I really like it. The double strap with button closure is very secure and the molle straps on back are great for lashing to packs.

The one offered by Amazon is specifically stated as having the leather sheath. The only place I have heard of offering the nylon sheath was WalMart, but there may be others. If you buy from Amazon (specifically Amazon, not a seller on Amazon) and the product is not as stated, you can always return, free of charge.

Comes with Kydex sheath and belt clip. Make sure it says that it comes with these items or you will only get the knife. The Molle attachment is extra.

mine was a hard kydex sheath, but had cheap rivets that rusted in 1 day (in all fairness, I tookit diving in the ocean). The titanium edge also evaporated in one day, when exposed to salt.

It comes w/ just the one nylon sheath. So far, so good. Haven't really seen any degradation of the velcro holding closed and I like the fact that it slowly molds to the shape of the knife (I put a couple different styles of my Leatherman's in w/ no problems). I hope this helps and good luck.

Yes the sheath it comes with okay and will last you until you can buy a better one. I personally spend another 45$ plus shipping on a custom taco sheath that has a metal clip for my belt.look on google for custom kydex sheaths when you get exta cash. But the knife is AMAZING. And i plan on keeping mine for ever. Its always worn on my side every day

I have seen some kydex ones on eBay. I only have the nylon one that came with the tomahawk. They typically run about $20-30 for Kydex sheath. The good thing with them is you can get them in a variety of colors and the kydex is much more rugged. Hope this helps.

Mine came with a nylon sheath that has the Estwing logo stitched across the front. It is a nice sheath, however not leather as described.

This comes with a nylon sheath, hyper mountable for all tactical applications, has additional pocket for stone. Couldn't be more functional. That said, the 9 came with a real hard case (zytel ?) sheath...I'd have prefered that finish. The knife is worth the cheap sheath...

I wear mine as a neck knife and have never had a problem with it. The kydex or whatever it is formed into the first choil, so it won't wear away from use. When you pull it from the sheath, the two halves flex at the indentations on the first choil. So there is no material being worn away like on some sheaths.

Not completely sure I think the difference in part # is the type of sheath leather vs nylon.

It does not appear to be kydex. The accepted test, is if it will hold a full soda can in weight without coming undone. The early sheath problems have been addressed and the retention is fine.

Yes, it is included, it is kydex. It is a molle sheath though, and takes some modification to belt carry.

The sheath is made up of two sections. First is a nylon lower that is "kydex-like" and securely holds the blade very well, has holes and slots along the perimeter for versatility when securing, etc. The second is the upper that is made of webbing that has a loop that you can run a belt through, and a loop with metal snap to secure the handle. The sections are connected together with two screw attachments that allow you to either remove the top webbing all together with no trace...or allows you to relocate the webbing up and down the length of the hard nylon lower.

My knife came with a kryton hard plastic type sheath, similar to kydex. There could be some minimal flopping I guess, I haven't had any issue with it, but you could also lash it to your leg or back pack with paracord to keep that from occurring.
