There are plenty of sheaths or belt pouches to choose from, and most of them have a velcro flap to help keep from losing your knife. If you don't find something you like better, www.eknifeworks.com has two sizes that Victorinox sells. Just enter Victorinox in SMKW's search, then when it comes up configure it to list SAK items according to cheapest first. The sheaths should come up quickly that way. They run about $5 each, but when you consider S&H you might as well treat yourself to another SAK or Opinel while you are ordering. SMKW sells lots of Zippo lighters, too. Get the cheapest model. They can be a useful piece of survival or everyday gear. Think of one as a miniature oil lamp that will burn a variety of liquid fuels. The standard cigarette lighter fluid is naphtha, a product that will give you a chemical burn if you overfill your lighter so it seeps out in your pocket and gets on your skin. Been there, done that (45 years ago), didn't like it. Wash naphtha off with soap and water if you get much of it on you. Short term exposure won't hurt you, though. Zippos are useful. The usual lighter fluid is sometimes called Boy Scout Juice because it's very handy for lighting a fire. The little yellow cans are pretty leak resistant.
 
I also don't like for my knives to get "lint-y" in my pocket so I carry them in a silicone-impregnated Sack-Up, a miniature of the huge one I use to cover my shotgun.
