Does the knife lock into the sheath or is it at least a tight fit so it won't fall out?

There's two straps with Velcro on them that wrap around the hilt so it stays in tight.

Theres a little tab in the sheath that applys preasure to the blade however its not enough to hold it when its upside down. A mod is probably your best bet if you want your blade to remain held with out the safety strap. Are you planning to put it on your shoulder?

This sheath holds very well in inverted carry. I've hiked with this knife in inverted for several miles and had my strap rubbing against the knife/sheath and never came undone. It has a positive click so you know its locked in well. Also does not make it too difficult to remove in an urgent need. Dunno bout a knife combat scenario but how often do you come across that?

This knife is not likely to come loose, but i'm not a surfer either. you get thick rubber straps that don't budge even when the ocean is kicking up quite a bit. the knife snaps into its holster and won't release unless you push on it with your thumb. you should work with that to make certain you are used to using it in the ocean. should be exactly what you want.

I take this knife hiking, camping and fishing every time I go. I wear it on my belt and have never had a problem with it falling out of the sheath. This is a great knife and the sheath, while different than most hunting knives is still pretty good! Hope this was helpful.

It's pretty tight but does not rub if that's what your worried about. About 1/16" or less between the blade and the frame. The whole knife casing is between 1/2" to 7/8"

Yes, it has a lock on it to prevent it from opening. A very good knife, especially for the money.

Yes it does. I know that some people don't like it, however, I have my knife attached to the side of my backpack and it has never slid or fallen out of the sheath when putting the backpack on or taking it off. I've never needed my knife out for such quick use that the second snap was an issue and knowing I'm not going to loose it while out in the woods is a comfort!

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 ).

Yes, I carried this knife in the stock sheath on my chest rig for about 7 months of hard use, never a problem. As long as the sheath is mounted to something it is secure, if it is thrown in a bag with heavy objects the sheath could possibly bend, releasing the knife.

Exactly right. It has a strong clip that is molded into the sheath that holds the knife in place. It holds very securely. I watched a couple of You-Tube videos to figure out how to remove the knife from the sheath because it isn't obvious how to do it with one hand. Once you know how, it's very quick and easy. I would suggest you do the same. Reviews I've read and videos all indicate this is a durable, long lasting knife and sheath.

Mine is the same way. The knife sort of snaps into the sheath - I guess for safety reasons - but it's a cheaply made piece of plastic junk. Try not holding the sheath on the sides, but on the edges, then pull the knife straight out. Watch your fingers. I'm probably going to make a leather sheath for mine. Anyway, snap the knife in and out of the sheath several times and it will loosen up a bit. Hope this helps.

its not a bad knife.its when you open your knife it locks.right their on the side of the little curve it has you press in with your finger and it releases the knife to close.it unlocks

There is a stitched loop, so the knife can slip onto a belt. I have seen a self grommet kit, where one can punch wwhatever size hole(s), to accommodate the knife you have. The leather knife sheath is so well made, with the buckle snap locking device. I hope this helps answer your question. I guess you I guess you could buy (which I've seen)

I have not had a problem, the sheath holds the knife very well and I personally prefer this kind of sheath which does does not require a snap. I really like this knife and do not think that you will be disappointed.

Mine fits great. Its usually laced up in the molle straps on my camping pack. I just took it out for two weeks of desert camping and the knife and sheath both did their jobs better than other knives I've used in the past.

There is a plastic insert inside the nylon. I've never had an issue with my knife being loose or exposed if it is buckled.

There is always "a chance" that the neck knife could come out of the sheath. Any neck knife". Mostly it would be due to snagging it on something, like a shirt sleeve or jacket when it is being removed or put on, or a branch or rock , etc. that you rub against. That being said, my sheath seems relatively secure and, if I keep it down my T-shirt, it is less likely to snag on something. Hope this was helpful. R Burd Sr
