Thanks for the compliments.

Scout carried?
What does that mean?

BTW, it also allows for strapping it your backpack easily.

Scout carry is when you carry the knife in a horizontal position usually in the small of the back area. It provides a lower profile and does not usually hang up. Some people belief that there is a greater chance of loss with this carry method, but if your sheath is designed for it and is well made with positive retention and good straps you really do not have anything to worry about.

There is a little more difficulty in re sheathing the knife with this carry method. It takes practice and a good sheath.

It has been used for years but got alot of popularity after the release of the Hunted. The Tom Brown Tracker Knife is carried alot in this fashion.

This is a sheath designed just for scout carry with a very secure locking design. I dont remember the maker but it is a nice looking sheath.
