Looks like a sharp knife would be able to just cut the strap. Is there something incorporated into this strap to keep this from happening?

There is a stainless steel cable inside the strap and galvanized steel rivets.

It has a braided steel cable inside of it. Check out the description of it.

There is a cutout that exposes the magnetic charger ports for cable access, the power doesn't need to go 'through' the leather. That said, it's tighter than I'd like for my charging cable and can be finicky. A little work with a dremel should resolve that issue.

No. Actually, it does a very fine job. I always play my A-style mandolin with a strap and it doesn't get in the way at all.

I haven't actually used it like that, but I'm sure you can. The clip would attach to a strap w/o a problem.

I certainly haven't tried it, but I see no reason why it could not be so. It is only two inches thick,so a sharp utility knife should do the job. Use a heavy straight edge, like a piece of lumber, to guide the cut. Happy sailing!

Yes. Now I am referring to a genuine razor, not one of these more modern jobs that one can just exchange the blade. The strap acts just like a sharpening stone. You take the razor back and forth at around a 45 degree angle. It's generally done each time you have put the razor to the face. Here in Kentucky, we have some barbers that still keep a strap connected to the chair and use it and a razor to trim around the ears, neck, and sideburns. It's heaven when done by someone who knows how!

My husband does not use the strap. He did confirm that there is only one place to attach. You could possibly call Chapin and get an answer. Sorry we could not be more help.

It looks like it would be pretty simple to remove the strap. It is held on by leather straps that look like they could jat be untied

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.

Since the strap goes around the neck and across the chest it is unlikely that the camera could be removed with out taking it off the strap. The system of buckles and strap in the area of the camera would be difficult to cut through to get the camera off the strap and, since this strap screws on to the camera tripod mount it would take several turns to get the camera loose that way. I can't speak for the cleverest pick pocket, but I would think most would look for easier pickings.

The pad is over bound with thread...if you cut it you would have to stop the raveling I think by binding it with something...

I had the same issue. There is a catch in the handle of the knife. The catch is in the underside of the handle directly "facing" the sharp edge of the blade. Push it to the side and the blade goes back into the handle.

there are two straps holding the gun in place, but they are sewn together. you could cut it off though.

There is a very small opening on two of the corners. If the cord of the wrist strap fastener was thin you would be able to get it through.

That is a very good question! I don't have a first hand experienced answer. It would be hard to pull the strap off your body, cutting it would be difficult, and unscrewing the attachment screw is difficult. I have found that when I have the strap on my body my left hand is usually on the camera, and I feel that it is safe. Like any pickpocket situation we must be allert of our surroundings. Donald.

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

Yes, but the buckle is only on one side & that side cannot be shortened (without cutting & resewing the strap). The other strap is threaded through the buckle which grips by friction, cinching down on the strap at whatever point it's closed. As it is closed, the buckle "cams over" & thereby tightens beyond what can be achieved by merely pulling to snug up the strap.
