Anyone know if the current Kydex sheath supplied with the Rhino is compatible with the large Tek Lok? I have a small Tek Lok which does not fit and I'm tired of having to use paracord to get the thing on my belt. I love the knife itself, but the fact that Boker supplies a sheath without a means of attaching it or clipping it anywhere is absurd to me. Sorry for the rant. Anyway, my sheath looks like this one:

Are you saying that the holes don't line up or that the clip doesn't lie flat? I have set up tek loks and G-clips using the slots; flat rubber washer can be used as spacers.
 
According to the german site, it comes with a tek lok here in Germany, sadly they don't specify which one.
But if the small one doesn't fit your sheath, I suppose its the large one
 
The holes on the small Tek Lok don't line up. I've seen pictures of Rhino sheaths with Tek Loks on them, but the sheaths look different than mine. I guess I'll have to go and order a large one and try it out. I still don't understand why Boker doesn't supply it with a Tek Lok for the North American market.
 
No picture of the sheath on the german site for comparison, either
Why they don't include one for you guys, I dunno. Maybe for price reasons ?

I thought about that, but it doesn't make much sense considering the user would still have to go out and spend the extra money to buy a Tek Lock. Might as well have included the Tek Lock with the knife and priced it accordingly. The only thing I could think of is that perhaps different sheaths are used for the German market which are Tek Lok compatible whereas the sheaths for the North American market are not Tek Lok compatible? I still haven't been able to confirm if they are or not.
 
Mine came with a large Tek-lok (I live in Bulgaria), and the sheath looks like yours. So I highly doubt that the sheaths for the NA market are different than the Europe ones. It doesn't make much sense.

Here's a couple of crappy cell phone pics:

Apart from that you can position the sheath in two ways on the tek lok, one is for typical vertical carry, the other sits a bit angled and it's the way I prefer to carry.
 
I have a Rhino and it fits on what i think is a Large tek lok( idk the small one, never seen it). On the large tek lok it will fit perfectly. I would maybe not recomment a large tek lok though, because its really bulky for the size of the knife! In fact the sheat and knife are pretty sling to wear on your belt, but the tek lok give it a bulky feel that i personnaly don't like when carrying knives.
