Does the snap on the sheath strap securing the knife handle loosen up? Mine is extremely difficult to snap in, make it unusable.

Mine was tight at first but not difficult. Is it bent anywhere. Could be a damaged button.

You can loosen it up some .. Mine was tough at first but I kept snapping an unsparing it works fine now !!! I went to a kydex sheath wich is very nice !! The sheath that came wth the knife is nice to but the kydex is the way to go !!!

Yeah you just have to snap and unsnap it a few times. I can open and close mine with one hand. I had the same issue as you when i first received mine

You probably have an improperly sized sheath strap. Mine worked fine right out of the box.

I agree with Anthony Smith, it loosens in time. With that said, I've got to believe the tension on the liner varies from knife to knife. I've seen that reported enough times.

I collect a lot of knives. Currently, this knife is stored away. I believe it is a liner lock. If you look into the blade compartment you should see a flat piece of metal, along the blade "liner" that locks the blade in place. You should be able to push this liner away from the blade to release the blade allowing it to close. Try that and let me know if it works.

The sheath would likely fit but the snap strap to secure the handle I'm not sure.

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 ... The sheath has leg tie deepens, a safety strap and a handle strap. The handle strap is very tight and you may need to stretch it out.

You might be able to unscrew it. However it doesn't stick out far and i like it, but beware if you plan on using the knife holder mine came attached, but it was on up-side-down and there is no way you can turn it right side up so, any knives put in it would obviously fall out.

Hi Candace, if you have the type of bit needed to tighten your knife all good no special tool needed. I have a knife I used an allen wrench to tighten. The knife you are asking about has not gone loose on me yet, looks like it takes a star bit. I like this knife feels solid and sturdy. I bought the pearl Godfather blade darn thing comes loose so easy.

The sheath that came with mine is not loose at all. It's pretty secure, to the point where if the ax is tilted just a bit to far forward of back, it won't slide line up and fit. The top is fairly well protected by the flap that covers it.

My husband bought this knife. He said "no". The blade will snap into the open position, but it does not "lock" like a traditional lock-blade knife does. Hope this helps.

I've only had my RST IIs for a short time,but I haven't noticed that problem.I haven't noticdd it in my RAT Is,either. I must admit I rarely put them to much use. I do open and close the blades using the thumb studs and haven't experiencedthe pivot screw loosening. I read almost all the reviews of this knife and didn't see any mention of that being a problem.

It is a little tricky but mine opens and closes. After inspecting it I see that as you may suspect, turning the handle right tightens it and left loosens it. Yours must be initially stuck. I bet if you can get it to open once you won't have any trouble the next time. ;)

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)³, 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 would think you might have a bit of difficulty unsnapping the tabs on this knife holder. It takes a certain bit of pressure combined with a twist of the wrist. I'd suggest trying to find a sheath-like protector that you could slide the knife into instead.

Yes, there is a snap strap to secure it in the sheath. However, if that unsnaps the knife will fall out.

I haven't had any problems, but I haven't used mine much. It's not the best quality knife I own and I could see where the locking mechanism would malfunction and become a problem.

It locks in pretty solid. I don't know that there is anything that is going to keep a knife in a sheath if your are tangled in debris. You should already have it out at that point. Down side: Knife is titanium and it cannot be sharpened.
