Did anyone find that the snap buttons on sheath scratch the black paint?

Generally speaking, the sheath didn't last for me. After only a day of frequent removal & return the blade cut the sheath wide open exposing the blade. To answer your question, the buttons didn't damage the blade at all, if anything, it's vice versa.

With Mine, I haven't had a problem with the buttons scratching the paint off.

I have not had a problem with scratching. If it does the paint is very durable.

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

I keep mine in my backpack with a bunch of other stuff and have not noticed scratches. I guess the silver one would show less wear but I have not seen any on the black as of yet.

Zero, mine was black, it's nice but tight and a little difficult to get the spax in and out, don't be in a hurry with the sheath.

No. It's not as bad as ppl say. I've had mine for over a yr now and it's still all black. I use it everyday so it's not like it's not being used. I prefer the black oxide look even after what little finish came off. The finish will rub to an extent but it's nothing to worry over. The oils in your hand with use will seal the oxide coat to the tool.

No. I just got through taking a good look and the grips appear to be form bonded onto the handle. I have beaten mine half to death and have had no paint peeling or stretching of the bungee. The handle appears to be as good as new and the tip also. The only negative is that there was a little plastic stick on mfg. emblem on the handle and it got loose on a 90+ degree Georgia day and I took it off. The heat and the glue backing on the emblem did not mix.

My knife came with a kryton hard plastic type sheath, similar to kydex. There could be some minimal flopping I guess, I haven't had any issue with it, but you could also lash it to your leg or back pack with paracord to keep that from occurring.

No. I considered it, but after some use and minor customization of the stock sheath felt I didn't need to.

I purchased two packages and had one arrow that the fletching came off. Honestly, I don't know if it was poorly glued or if it rubbed the brush when I shot.

no.i have black lcr 38....not a scratch. i use this holster everyday and have hundreds and hundreds of practices pulls. i do see slight chipping at the barrel tip, very small and could be due to my constant practice of drawing my weapon. the holster is awesome, still fits tight to my side, the paddle is nice and strong and the tension setting on the weapon has not loosened at all. i have two of these......only one down side..........on the inside of the holster are two little metal bumps that can stick into your side a bit if they touch your skin it is very irritating. as long as you wear a t-shirt when you tuck the paddle into your pants you will not feel it, or if it is too hot for an undershirt simply tuck the paddle between you belt and your pants and its all good!!

I did not have a problem with the buttons but the inside is completely rusted out. It happened after about a year.

Scratch? No, but every holster will eventually wear the finish on your gun, even leather holsters

Yes, it came with a sheath made of cheaper black plastic with a metal tip. I'll try to upload a picture later. :)

Mine did the very same thing. The strap stretched on my during my first outing with it. My friend his the same axe with no issues. I hope you still have the sheath because its an easy fix. What I did was take it to a local leather shop and had them add a second snap to the strap. Only coat me $3 and was a great fix thus far. Haven't seen replacements personally.

Wiping it down when you get it will help significantly, yes. But, for me, it didn't completely fix it. It still rubbed off on my hands a little bit the next 4 or 5 times I used it, but after that, it was fine. And it's still all-black, so it's not a cosmetic issue with the tool.

Mine came with the kydex sheath & a crappy belt clip, that looks like the whole sheath would pop off your belt if you ever squatted down. I am looking for a suitable replacement [kinda chaps my butt that I have to spend more money to make sure I don't lose an obviously high quality knife. Should come with at least a belt loop.].

Bought mine a year ago and the only issue i had which is minor the rubber on the side of the knife has come a little loose or separated. Still no big deal.
