ABSTRACT:
Knife sheath for pivotable knives such that a knife blade is automatically extended as the knife is removed from the sheath. The sheath has front and back faces with connected edges, but having two opposing first and second separated edge areas so that the knife blade may be simultaneously inserted through both separations. After a knife is inserted into the sheath through the separations, the knife is pivoted to enclose the blade in the sheath. As the knife is removed from the sheath, a connecting member adjacent to the upper edge separation causes the blade to extend.
