ABSTRACT:
A knife and sheath combination including a pivotable mount, whereby, the sheath when empty hangs from the belt with its knife opening facing upward, however, when the knife is inserted into the sheath, the weight of the knife handle causes the sheath to revolve on its mount to a position wherein the knife opening faces downward. This arrangement allows the user to quick-draw the knife with a downward motion but may re-sheath the knife from the top position.
