Looks to me that the leather stops short if where the button is on the snap side, and there's a hole drilled where the button is on the belt side.
Looks like it will be top-down carry with the option of blade forward or blade rearward.
Someone with the knife and sheath should clear this up.
I'm blaming the new forum format for any mistakes or repeats of my speculation...
It is a very tight fit...
I checked and the leather strip appears to cover the entire length of the front of the sheath. There is no hole in the back of the sheath on the strap side. The only thing that is in this leather piece is the rivet for the snap. It is a very tight fit and it seems to only go in with the button facing the belt strap away from the leather strip. You got me on how this is supposed to prevent deployment. I do not use sheaths for folders, anyway. Not even the 110.
I got mine Friday after reading this post earlier in the week. It's really a great knife. I have pictures in the Sunday Picture Show.
Jeff, should this knife be lubed on a regular basis?
After a week the rivet that holds that extra piece of leather in place is scratching the knife. That might bother some folks.
I typed this before and don't know what happened?Also, should the knife be stored open to eliminate tension on the launching mechanism or doesn't it matter?
