ABSTRACT:
A sheath for carrying a knife or blade is disclosed. The sheath includes a scabbard attached to a carrying strap forming a loop through which a carrying junction such as a belt may be passed. The axis of the loop is generally aligned with a transverse axis perpendicular to an axis of gravity. The length of the scabbard includes a longitudinal axis generally angled with respect to the axis of gravity. The mouth of the scabbard is further angled with regard to the transverse axis. Each of the foregoing alignments allows a user to more easily and efficiently insert and remove a blade into the scabbard while carrying the sheath. The sheath is also provided with an inner shell disposed inside the scabbard, the inner shell having a plurality of lengthwise linear ridges for gripping the blade inside the shell.
