How does this work? I want to attach it to my IOTV, all I can find on the internet is people using zip ties with paracord. Is that the proper way to attach it?? It comes with a belt clip of some sort but the holes don't even line up, so I don't think they are related.

Here is a picture of the knife/sheath:

The site says "Molle compatible" and I already have the knife in my possession.

I'm headed to Afghanistan shortly, and want to carry this knife on my IOTV.
 
Thanks for your service, stay safe over there.

Here's a pic of the 375 with the Tek-Lok clip mounted;

If that's not going to place it in the position you want or need it in, then some good ol' American ingenuity will have to come into play.... :D
 
I would think it would be reasonably sturdy.

That said, I don't trust plastic, especially in hot, dry, dusty climates with wild temperature extremes.

I' think you would be best served by lashing it with some 550 cord.

I know upside down looks cool, but I would value retention over deployment, were I in your situation.
 
I'm going for a cross draw. The reason is there isn't a lot of room on my best especially on the top half. Reason bein' is I have my M9 pistol holster at a cross draw on top. I have magazine pouches on the lower half. Right now I have about three inches of the handle sticking out the side from under neath the pouches and zip tied under. It also makes it a little less obvious for someone to grab at it. I'll show pictures later. Right now I have it on my ACU IOTV because I haven't put together my multicam one yet so it will look a lil weird.
