Instead of asking if this will fit my knife (sarcasm), would somebody let me know if the retaining strap is velcro or a snap? Thanks in advance.

The retaining strap is snap but the strap is velcro size adjustable. The blade sleeve is approx. 1 3/4+" across and will take normal thickness blades. Two sheaths I have is 8" for my SPEC PLUS SP6 8". One is for a Linder 8" survival knife. Both fit well and have a touch of space to spare in all three directions saving me from cutting as the knives go in and out. I had my fingers crossed when I bought mine (others did not fit) and am well pleased.

Good question. It's both... the nylon retention strap is adjustable Velcro but there is also a conventional "snap" fastener which secures the retention strap together. The "female" side of the snap is adjustable, while the "male" side is fixed. You won't have any problems with the strap accommodating any conventional fixed blade knife. Hope this helps.

The lock should in time loose up a little but the lock is supposed to be tough. The entire purpose of this knife is the tough lock and so it doesn't give out easy n break. Sounds fine to me, mines the same way n I'm happy with mine and I'm a knive enthusiast. My opinion knife works the way it should

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

It should. The clip that holds it is a single piece of folded metal similar to a money clip or the clips on most folding knives. The only difference is the bottom "lip" that secures it is turned the opposite way to keep the entire thing from falling off. The clip is very tight and wide so its stable. Depending on how wide the molle loops are it may be a very tight fit which may be a good thing if you don't plan on constantly taking it on and off

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.

I was curious about this question and I conducted a quick experiment. I got a plastic ziplock bag and put it in between the knife and the magnet to try to simulate the plastic sheath.Here are the results with the various size chef's knives12 inch - knife slid right off10 inch - knife slid right off8 inch - knife slides a little, then stays stillI probably wouldn't trust it with the plastic sheaving on it.

Find both knives and compair the two hand guards. This sheath holds and locks the hand guard. Then the snaps are extra security. On my plate carrier I have cut the snaps and straps off. The sheath holds my K-BAR snug and tight. Hit a cabelas or bass pro to compair the two. GOOD LUCK! My advice it's only $20 to find out. Then only $80 to get you a K-BAR!

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.

The sheath retains the knife with a snap, it won't fall out easily. It has a belt loop, no millie attachment. This is a Very Solid knife, but the sheath is 'kinda cheap. I made own sheath out of leather & kydex.

Yes. It is slightly tight, but not overly so. In fact, I keep a regular size band-aid in the pouch along with the knife. I have carried this same knife for many years. I have had numerous pouches. This one is great because it can be clipped on/off a belt without removing the belt yet stays clipped on very securely. This is my "day to day" pouch for this knife.

Mine did not come with an insert either. The retention strap was also only Velcro, no snap.

I got mine a few years ago, there seemed to be a problem with the sheath at that time (I fixed it with a couple staples @ the retention spot.) Since then I read that they fixed the problem. To answer your question, at first the retention sucked! But they are a great company, and with one email, they sent me the newer improved sheath, for free of course, and it is WAY better. The knife will not fall out now. Over all, a great LITTLE knife!

Well, that didn't happen to me, so I can only guess. Maybe the sheath heated and cooled during transport and has trapped the knife.Or something was jammed into the sheath when the knife was inserted at the factory.My knife slides loose after a firm tug on the strap or handle.Sorry I don't know more.Maybe a call/Email to CRKT might help.www.CRKT.com

The sheath you see looks the same on both sides... There is NO belt clip, slot or loop. The sheath clicks the knife in and holds it pretty secure. It has a cord attached and can be worn around the neck or using the side holes in the sheath it could be lashed to.... Whatever. Hope this helps.

My mag is roughly 4.25x1.25x.75. About 3" fits in the sleeve and the rest sticks out the top but does not exceed the overall height of the holder. The opening is 1" wide and the inside depth is about 3". The material is neoprene so it is tight but will expand. It also has a velcro strap that come across the top to hold items in. I have a Gerber knive that is about 5" long folded and I just tried it and it works. The clip doesn't fit all the way down because the knife hits the bottom but it still fit. It is not snug but mine is stretched because the mag is thicker than the knife but a new one should work. Hope this helps. My mag is roughly 4.25x1.25x.75.

'Ello Joe: I have 2 ColdSteel knive SRK and Kobun. Both share the same concelex style sheaths. When you un snap the SRK you should have your thmb on the back/spine of the blade NOT THE EDGE!
