Anybody have a Maxpedition Strobe / GPS / Compass pouch (1433)?

[ari6126]

I'm thinking about getting one for my Spirit. Things I like:
1. Snap and velcro closure, you can use one or both (you can cover the velcro and make it snap only)
2. Looks thin (no clip)
3. Pretty cheap

Flap covering velcro:


So, anybody have one? Do you like it? If you have a Spirit too, will it fit?

[DaveK]

Yup - I have a few of these and they are very versatile pouches (and cheap by Maxpedition Standards too).



That's 2 Spirits, I Bear 155 and a Victorinox Solo (so yes your Spirit will fit but rattle around on its own).



No problem with height either.

I have two of these on my Falcon, one for the Garmin GPS, and the other for my camera. Very useful pouches indeed.

I had considered one when getting my PF II.

Simple and does what it says on the tin by the looks of it  No fancy pen holders or secret pockets just a solid pouch for a range of items

Might look at getting one if I ever get some Paypal pennies

Simple is the word I think Dan.

So in other words it is way too big for just a Spirit. Great thanks. Anybody have any other sheath ideas for me? Here are my requirements:
1. Black nylon
2. No belt clip, just loops.
3. Either no velcro or velcro that can be disabled

Medic82 got a pouch from Tasmanian Tiger for his Powerlock I think..  
I don't know if the small pouch fits a Spirit but it might be worth a look.

Thanks. It looks like the small one should fit the Spirit. It's hard to find in the US though, any other suggestions?

The site I linked to ships to the US ($17 in all) and I think other UK sellers does too..

Yeah, shipping is $17 which is kind of ridiculous.

Shipping is $10, but maybe you can find a seller in the US.. Kenneths thread here: http://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,10954.0.html

I figured out why we are mixed up. Shipping is 10 GBP, or 17 USD. Medic also did a follow up review: http://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,17928.msg338622.html. Both problems he mentioned shouldn't be such a big deal with the smaller pouch.

You're right I was thinking about USD $ not GBP. My bad it's early sunday morning here..    I think all Molle pouches rides low on a belt, but as you said it shouldn't be a problem with a light tool..

This one looks good: http://www.bladehq.com/item--Microtech-Buckle-Knife--3004. Sounds like it fits the Spirit perfectly. But I can't find it in stock anywhere.
Edit: Here it is: http://www.thebladeshop.com/Microtech_Medium_Size_Sheath_MTSHEATHMED300_p/mtsheathmed300.htm

Found another one: http://www.knife-depot.com/knife-265538.html
It might be cheap enough just to buy without any other reviews.

So I decided on the Tasmanian Tiger. Now all I need is a Brit to help me out.
