I doubt this will hold nylon sheathes - am I wrong?

I don't see why not. The leather frog ties around the sheath no matter what material it is made from. It shouldn't slip through.

What is a nylon sheath? Mine has held a steel scabbard and a long sword quite easily. I have about 15 different lengths and weights. If you send me a picture I will try to help you more. Linda

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.

I actually still have my sheath and worked pretty well. I would think the best way is to create one by using the dimensions from you old one. Wouldn't be too hard. I would figure something in the lines of some alligator clips, some wax, some 550 cord, and something that could use as a sheath like something plastic to put the wax in and then put wrap in some cloth. That would be my best bet.

The one offered by Amazon is specifically stated as having the leather sheath. The only place I have heard of offering the nylon sheath was WalMart, but there may be others. If you buy from Amazon (specifically Amazon, not a seller on Amazon) and the product is not as stated, you can always return, free of charge.

Sorry, I honestly don't know. Perhaps listing out all the various featured tool options, then check your list af=gainst the various tools?Personally, I prefer ballistic (heavy duty) nylon pouches or sheaths anyway--at least in a damp climate.

My friend this is a "friction" sheath and should be a tight fit. That is to keep it from accedently falling out. As you use it it will become a bit more lose and should be fine hope this helps! Btw this is one of my favorits now!

The sheath does have a thin nylon fabric belt loop which would probably work ok -- but this hatchet is pretty sharp which could be a problem if it slipped out! I'd rather carry it in a day pack or something.

I think so. But my use of this is as a backup set that lives in a backpack. So no direct experience with trying to wear the sheath.

It should. I don't see why it wouldn't. But I don't have the sheath so I'm not 100% positive.

No, and it is a cheap sheath. Better off going to a sporting goods store to match up. That is what I had to do. This is like a child's toy.

The sheath is designed to be used with the scales attached, so getting it to 'snap' in securely without them may be a challenge. You might be able to modify the scales though, and just retain a small portion, to allow it to lock into the sheath, then wrap the rest with paracord. For the current price (under $14), I may pick up another one just to try it out.

YES, It's kind of a holster type thing. I hang mine in the garage and do not use the sheath.

I'm not sure what ur asking??? But the sheath has to straps with snaps to hold knife in and a belt loop .. Hope that's helped

Yeah brother, looks like 1.5 is maybe max for my leather sheath, but let me warn you, it's REALLY TIGHT. You'll need to "break it in" w/ a leather protectant like Lexol, mink oil, maybe even Vaseline. I'm going w/ a nylon black aftermarket (NiteEyes (sp?) or maybe a Black MUT sheath.

yes, it is a nylon sheath( ok but not great) i made my own out of kydex(see picture below)

Sure. The sheath has two holes to thread a belt through. The holes at the bottom can be used to run paracord through for keeping close to the body. That keeps it from flopping around.

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.
