Review on πŸ”ͺ KA-BAR 1480S TDI Sheath: Perfect Fit for TDI Knives #1477, 1480, & #1481 by Cre Soto

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good idea, bad design

Looks good and feels solid. The first problem that arises is installing the clip on the case. There are 4 small pins that go through the clip, then 4 rubber loops, then a shell and they attach with small hex head screws on the other side. They are difficult to put on and take some time to assemble. The next problem is the clip. As I was leaving, he caught something and bent the clip out. In order to attach it to my belt so the sheath doesn't go with the knife when I pull it, I had to add a zipper to turn it into a belt loop. Overall I'm not particularly happy with the design, but I can't think of anything better, so.

Pros
  • Security
Cons
  • Only available in black
