Gotta say, I never ran into this issue even when carrying a ST300. Probably because I carried at around 4 o'clock on the belt so the belt did have to remove itself from at least two loops before allowing the tool to fall. Whatever works for you, friend.
Mostly I carry the Leatherman Rebar in the leather sheath. Sometimes the Surge, and sometimes a Buck 110.I simply unbuckle, and take the loose end of the belt in my right hand, and loop that back again hrough the belt loop immediately to the right of center.Done. I can use the facilities or hang it on a hook all night long, it's not going anywhere.
That does indeed work, though is only slightly slower and a little more fiddly than my method.I'm not a fan of positioning the sheath at the 4 o clock position as it seems to slip around a lot more.Probably has a lot to do with the old worn belt and the fact that the sheath has cordage for the belt loop now instead of the leather because the leather belt loop broke in the first week of me owning the tool

I use the vertical pocket on a pair of 5.11 Taclite Pro pants, which I wear almost every day. So the MT stays there no matter what I do. But this does not work for everyone.https://www.511tactical.com/taclite-pro-pants.html

Wear a kilt,, then no need to ever loosen the belt regardless of your business
