Not what I was hoping for... I assume you purchased one like Buck lists on their website?I feel you on the sheath quality southARbuck. I recently replaced a 110 that I had back in 1984. The 110 was nicer than I remembered but the sheath made with little love or thought and just looked and felt cheap. When I wore it the damn thing road way too high on my hip and kept getting caught on things like seatbelts and shirts. The riveting and stitching were of poor quality and the tool work lacked luster but then again you do get a lot for $60 Bucks. (No pun intended) This Is what I was talking about, Old versus New.
I think the new USA sheaths have the loop. Just have to wait until inventory out in the market run out and of the flat strap version.
That ^ looks so much better. I just notice that my new sheath has a tiny little Made in mexico sticker tucked down inside it. My faith in American craftsmanship is restored and I will order a new one in a couple months just to be safe. The Buck I bought was probably sitting in the store for a couple years. Kayaks, fishing, and hunting gear is their big sellers but they sell knives for the convenience of the customer. Thanks for the info guys and thank you all for your service as well.
I will be purchasing a couple as well. I agree the backs are not shown on their website and after seeing the pics above, more order will be placed!
