I recently acquired a Meyerco CQB-1 fixed blade. Although I couldn't be happier with the knife itself, I am having some issues with the factory sheath. Retention is way too tight, it takes a fair amount of force to free the knife. Is there any way to lessen the retention of the sheath, or am I going to have to get a kydex one made. The factory sheath made from injection molded plastic and seems to be similar to Cold Steel's sheaths.

Thanks for any imput.
 
You could try to warm it up with a hair drier and spread it a bit and let it cool.
It works for me on Kydex but I'm not sure about plastic.
