Charge Scabbard

[cliff355]

I just got my Charge Ti yesterday and am still not over how well made, well designed and ergonomically perfect it is. Better yet, this thing fits perfectly into a leather belt-clip magazine holder (Bianchi) for double-stack 9mm/.40 mags. Not just close - exact fit like it was made for it. So, if you don't like the flap sheaths which have to be threaded onto a belt, this is a ready-made alternative.

Speaking of the leather scabbard that is sold with with Charge tools, on the site it makes reference to the hole in the bottom as allowing for "open carry". What exactly does this mean? Surely with the pliers open, the handles don't meet, do they? Or are they advocating you going around with a knife blade dangling out, waiting for your thigh? Looking at the scabbard, I can't figure out what's supposed to stick out of that hole, and what possible use that would be. Tool adapter, maybe? That would almost make sense, except don't you risk pulling the bit off when drawing it?


Also, thanks for the tip on double-stack 9/.40 mag carriers - I might invest in one of those DeSantis thigh holsters with the mag pouch and light/kit pouches for going to the range; that way I can wear my IWB rigs where my Leatherman usually goes and drill that way...

Open carry means pliers open and at the ready.. useful sometimes. Click the link below and then click the leather juice sheath (view large) and it shows the juice in "open Carry".
