Can a large tek lok be installed on the sheath for horizontal carry? if so, what size dia/length chicago screws should be used for sheath thickness? ?

I personally don't know anything about tek loks, but I have fastened these on my belt horizontally behind my back using paracord. There are paracord holes in the sheath. However, it is not totally flat. I don't know if you have seen the full-sized Ka-Bar plastic sheath but is is like a shortened, more rounded-off version of that.

Yes it will. That said I used mine for my surge and the accessory bits and found that I did not have the room I had in my original sheath. To its credit it does have the MOLLE attachment so this sheath will fit on your bug out bag or go kit. For me personally I didn't like it all that much. I keep it in the event that my original case dies on me.

The easiest way to go is with a Spec Ops, which will also give you a nice 4 inch pouch for shapener, ferro, and a few small survival tins. A custom kydex sheath is cheap if you do it yourself and have already invested in the rivit tool, heat gun and bag of rivets. Otherwise, just go with the short SpecOps.

Actually, it does fit when you mount it horizontally. You can only attach two screws but it's plenty secure that way imo. The knife is easily drawn from the side. Hope this helps. I too was confused at first.

I lent my shroud to my neighbor to finish up a project so I cannot measure. I used a 4 inch DeWalt. The shroud was plenty big, so I think 4.5 should go too. Mine worked out real nice on my job.

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.

The sheath is ready to go right out of the box if you have system to mount it too. At most, you have to get some malice clips depending on what setup you're running.Hope this helps.

I just pulled out my BK7 and BK11 and tested it for you, and NO it doesn't really work. The BK11 is too large for the secondary sheath insert that originally held the little BK? that used to ship for free with the larger BK7 and BK9. The BK11 sheath will slip inside the BK7's pouch, but the pouch flap is then in the way and needs to be tucked somewhere or cut off. IMO this pouch is better reserved for other gear like fire starting supplies and a sharpening stone. I personally think it's better to carry the BK11 around your neck, or in your pocket------------separately from the BK7. The knives serve different purposes, and I don't like to place all my eggs in one basket anyway. Hope this helps. :) W.W.

Hi Donald, I've been sorta waiting for someone else to answer this one but since no one has... here is my take on it. I'd wrap it around a long nail or spike much the same way you would put it on a spool. My nail or wrap area would be no longer than ~5 3/4". I'd then tuck the cord into itself on one end and stuff it in my pouch, nail and all. Never hurts to have another tool around. ; - ) I have seen some videos on how to wrap cord in a way that holds it together well but also allows for quick and easy unraveling in an urgent situation. You may want to YouTube that as I'm not allowed to put outside links in this note. I hope someone gives you a better answer... but that's what I'd do since we don't have a better one yet. All the Best, Bill... TOUGH-GRID UPDATE: You're welcome Don! When you search YouTube, use the term "paracord deployment lanyard" I think you'll like the videos you find there. Bill... TOUGH-GRID

The sheath should fit a 1.75 inch belt. There is actually 2 inches between the top of the sheath and the hook that grabs the bottom of your belt. The sheath that it comes with cannot be mounted horizontally.

Not with it's current sheath system....you can possibly try a custom Kydex sheath with a mini Tech-Lok configured for a horizontal mount.

Because the sheath is gusseted, something one inch in diameter will fit easily in the sheath. Be it a monocular, a knife with round handles (think Opinel) or a tactical flashlight (my use for the sheath) it should work just fine for you. Velcro is holding up well but the buckle fastener is the feel advantage to this sheath. No accidental opening with this puppy.

If this gurka fits a large Tek-lok it will work. Does this knife have a kydex sheath? If so it is most likely drilled for the large Tek-lok and not the small one because it is a large knife. The large Tek-lok would hold the knife securely in my opinion.

Im not a 100%. I gotta bet there close tho, im sure ur looking for a bolt on. What i can say is ive seen costum kydex sheaths made to fit and work as a piggy backer. If i may say so, im a big fan of ranger bands or if not try 550 cord its always neat and is vary useful.

The sheath is 5 1/16 long 2 5/8 inch wide1 1/8 inch thickThe belt loop can be removed and rotated for horizontal (scout) carry.

Unless the sheath is molle compatible it won't work. You'd likely have to make modifications to the sheath.

Can't help with "conceal" but keep in mind that this is designed as a neck knife. For belt carry, I can think of 3 options1) what I do is wrap the cord twice around your belt and let the knife dangle at the desired height. 2) get something like a "Blade-Tech Tek-Lok with Hardware" that converts the sheath to a belt clip mount. Don't know if the predrilled holes in the sheath will line up for this model. 3) make a new kydex or leather sheath
