Hey everyone!

I recently purchased a black oxide Leatherman Wave as a new off duty EDC (I carry a normal stainless Wave on duty). I would like to carry this in a horizontal pouch on my normal belt; I would also be ok with a kydex sheath that rides a bit higher. I just prefer to not have much, if anything, riding below my belt line. I did a search and came up with outdated results. I really like the kydex sheath Blade Tech used to make for the Wave with the Tech Lock, but all my sources show it has been discontinued. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance!
 
Nephron, are you looking for something off the shelf or to have something made? If the latter, I can move this to the services wanted forum where makers can respond.

BladeScout, thanks for the mention. I do plan on having sheaths available for all LM models at some point, but am not taking individual orders right now.

ETA: BlueFalcon, your post has been moved to Tech Support. If you have an issue, take it there.

I don't mind either way. I'm just looking for something durable and reasonably priced. So far I have only found off the shelf sheaths in leather vertical carry, and the custom makers I have found want almost as much as I paid for the tool.
 
Few possible options.

The Leatherman MOLLE sheaths have loops that could be used for horizontal carry if they're wide enough (not sure). May have to snip the MOLLE strap off if so.

I believe one of the LM sheaths is made for both vertical or horizontal. Not sure right off which one, but you could contact them and ask. Very friendly folks.

On a search., I see that the TAD S2 pouch works pretty well. May be similar pouches sold by other nylon gear makers.

It came with a LM Molle sheath, but I could fit a whole extra half of a multi tool in there with the Wave, so it's not the best fit. I have a nylon sheath that came with my stainless wave that had loops to go horizontal, but they were so weak the threads pulled out after a few weeks of wearing it. I'll check out the TAD S2. Thanks for the suggestions!
