New Leatherman Sheath

[Grant Lamontagne]

First of, we don't know much about it, except that this sheath is supposed to replace many of the regular line sheaths on full sized tools.  I can't say for sure which ones, but I did head Waves and Charges.  I'm not certain if this will be the new sheath for Fuses, Kicks or Blasts.



I also don't know if this is the final design, or a prototype, so it could be significantly different by the time it gets into everyone's grubby little hands!



As you can see, it's a solid looking sheath with reinforcements all over the place.  This does seem to make it a bit on the bulky side, as there are loops or pockets on either side of the sheath that don't seem like they would fit a bit kit or much of anything else. 



Either way, it is still a nice looking sheath and is designed to allow the tool to be carried in the open or closed position, and really reminds me of a full sized version of the leather Juice sheath.





Also, no word yet on when these sheaths will start showing up.

I like it! It looks to be the best of both worlds (Leather/Nylon). 

[Magnus]

It still doesn't look as good as a full leather sheath.

[Freudian Frog]

Now that's looking to be a well thought out and good lookin' accessory! I may have to get one of the big boy line o' Leathermans!

[WhichDawg]

WoW! way to go Leatherman, they do listen!

I like it, even the side pockets, for pens, bits, fire-steels, cigars!

It still doesn't look as good as a full leather sheath.

But still it looks better and far more wellmade than the Fleather sheaths, so both thumbs up to Leatherman..  

[Dunc]

I'll try them    They look good so far .

I suppose more choice is a good thing, so now you can go for all nylon, nylon leather combo, and all leather, and I suppose there are also molle sheaths as well.

But IMO the all leather is still the best.

Nice to see that they are trying something new.

Those side pockets seems to be bound to have whatever is in in to fall out. Or at least look like that.

Am I the only one not having a problem with the original sheat that came with the wave? I have it now for I don't know, 5 or more years and stil doing alright. And I do carry it almost every day.

My 2006 Wave's sheath dropped off my belt 2 years ago. The stitching around the belt loop tore out.

looks really nice def!  i wonder if they made those pockets on the sides for those of us who like to cram flashlights and what not in there?

also def, you getting any swag for us?
