Suggestion for Leatherman Wave+ horizontal holster/sheath
on: May 16, 2025, 08:39:22 PM
I carry a Leatherman Wave + on a regular basis and would like to carry it in the appendix position but need a sheath/holster that mounts on the belt in the horizontal position.
 I found a company named ZeeLock that makes one that I would consider but all I really want is basically the standard ballistic nylon OEM sheath that would mount in a horizontal position. Is there something out there I'm missing?
Thanks for any replies.

The great bulk of my knives and multis are in storage right now, so another member might have to confirm this. But I believe a Leatherman MOLLE sheath could be set up for horizontal carry without a whole lot of fuss.

Culling of the knife and multi herds in progress...

If I pay five figures for something, it better have wings or a foundation!

  I have used the old military 'alice' clips on different sorts of things.  You could turn a conventional sheath sideways and fasten them to the belt with a couple of 'alice' clips.  Buy them at most surplus stores for almost nothing.  Best wishes.  G

These work for the Wave & Charge so should be good.

I also have a one that fits the OHT, so very big (but it does fasten down using the Velco flap)

Have I got it right when I say that the appendix position are over the front pocket? In that case I carry my MT at the same place. If you can find or make a sheath that has a slight angle to it I would recommend it. I ended up making my own

Not sure what you mean by "centerdrive"? Could you post a pic of it? Thanks for the reply!
