Can you remove the ballistic nylon belt loop portion of the sheath (leaving behind only kydex)? If so what tool is needed. Thank you.

The simple answer is no.You can, technically. There is no hardware thats removable though...you'd loose the loop. You would either have to cut the loop off or, if your crafty, drill out the substantial rivets (5) and take it off. You could, after that, use chicago screws to install your own loop, but thats a project. It's not like a Coldsteel sheath.

The nylon is riveted to the sheath. the straps that hold the knife are riveted to the nylon belt loop and the sheath. You could cut just the belt loop if you don't need it, but if you remove all of the nylon you wouldn't have and straps.

Yes it's held on by 5 rivets. You could drill them out with little effort to remove the belt loop.

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

The sheath it comes with has grommet holes around much of it, not unlike most Kydex sheaths, as well as straps you can use to sling it for under-arm carry - but they can just as easily attach to a pack's M.O.L.L.E. system. I personally have mine tucked through some cinching straps w the handle resting in a deep pocket.

i have no idea. i would look at the box label for the country of origin to see, but i tossed it out long ago. as for a replacement sheath, i would say either make your own, or find a leather worker in your area. as far as making your own, i find that heating up PVC pipe is a great way to replicate kydex sheaths. if you can, visit youtube and see if you can find videos for home made sheaths using pvc pipe.

You have to run your belt thru the sheath loop; will not Velcro around belt. Good quality sheath and knife though!

No the belt loop is sewn on to the back of one side only. You could modify it yourself. It's a good quality sheath. For the price trust me the knife and sheath are really worth it. I can pound on it harder than a lot of my more expensive knives and I'm more confident in this one. Give it a try. Not impress send it back I guess?

I think it's a hard plastic, but it may be Kydex. My problem with the sheath was that it was ONLY able to be attached via MOLLIE webbing. The belt carry method just didn't work. Ultimately, it's a glorified kitchen knife.

It is a hard plastic sheath, known as kydex. Hope this helps, also before you buy, check out the Cold steel SRK. Better knife in my opinion. Good luck

It comes with a kydex sheath and two straps for molly. It's a really nice little blade.

Hello Andy, Yes. It can be removed. But we recommend to keep it there as the recommend way to carry the knife is put it on the belt clip for safety reason. Many blessings, BlizeTec

Sorry but no, other then rotating the sheath around your body. The sheath and belt clip are combined and made in a single molded body. It is a great knife and sheath set at at a very economical price.

The plastic sheath probably can be removed, but it certainly will not be replaceable after it has been removed. Mine was a tad loose. Beware, the pin that holds the adjustment mechanism together fell out of mine after minimal use. Stanley said they would replace it after I spent more on postage to return it than the wrench cost me to begin with. I just went with another brand.

Yes. As the description clearly states - Includes a black Kydex sheath with a belt loop attachment. This is phenomenal knife. It is perfectly balanced and is extremely comfortable in your hand. Perfect size. Perfect weight. Probably the best fixed blade on the market.

Mine came with a nylon belt sheath. I would've preferred to have gotten the leather pouch for it so I could use the carabiner to hook it to my pack.
