Can it be carried in scout position? (Strapped to belt horizontally)

Little large for that. Maybe if on back but still a little large for carrying sideways. I don't believe the sheath is designed for it either.

This unit is 17 inches long and 4 1/4 inches wide (at its' thickest point). I guess you would be able to carry it in the scout position; however, I think that it may limit your flexibility.

you could fasten horizontally but you'd have a problem with the straps on the sheath. Making it difficult to sheath knife one-handed. look for something with more traditional sheath. Current sheath would take two hands and some luck to get knife in sheath. sorry

The sheath is made to wear vertical. With some adjustments it could be worn horizontal

Yes. I have mine mounted (inverted) on my pack using the strap on the back of the sheath without the leg strap. It holds very well. The sheath has a pressure 'clip' that you feel when you push the knife all the way into the sheath.

You can you might have to do some fitting with it. I use mine for hunting so I can carry all my gear on me.

Yes, sheath can be worn in either vertical or horizontal position on belt. Although if worn horizontally it will only fit a 1 1/4" belt.

Yes you can. The long strap used to pull can also hook on to the other side. Making it like a side satchel.

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.

The angle of the holster is battle and field tested and I'm not aware of a total horizontal holster/vest. Personally, I think it would compromise the weapon if it were in a complete horizontal position.

No it can be attached to a belt using a carabineer but on its own only has a small metal hoop attaches to the back of the pouch

Yes it can. There isn't a holding strap or anything but it seems fine to me that way.

It is not. There is a hook on the back of it you can fasten a strap to, but mine did not come with such a strap (so you could wear it with a strap over the shoulder around the waist if you had such a thing already).I just carry mine around in my bag, but the strap option could be appealing.

Not very well since it is designed to go on your belt.. You would need a strap around your shoulder, not very comfortable but maybe plausible.

Yes I tied mine up and down on the back of my back pack and carried it fine , it a bit long to tie cross ways on the top.

You could rig something up through the belt loop but it would not be practical for the size of the pouch.

Blair,No. The case is meant to be horizontal and includes a fixed hook to hang on the belt. Additionally, there are belt loops on either side of the hook so you can thread your belt through for extra security.

Not with the equipment provided, Phillippe, but you could probably rig something to strap it there is you wanted. The head (light) piece is curved to sort of fit your head, so not sure how comfortable it would be. The straps are 1 inch wide and it comes with a long cord for the battery pack, so I bet it wouldn't be too hard to rig. Hope this helps.

Mine is in my motorcycle saddlebags so for me carrying is not a problem. If your hiking gear includes a backpack you'll be fine. Being discrete will all depend on what you have to carry it in.
