Sog Tech Bowie sheath attachment - anything simple I can just buy?

I have a SOG Tech Bowie I bought in maybe 2007-2008. Its original belt attachment was one of these, which broke with little use and was just not a serious part - I don't want to get another. It did have a Tek-Lok-esque grid of mounting holes, but with non-Tek-Lok bolt-to-bolt dimensions.

The rivet to rivet spacing on the sheath is 48mm, with 6.2mm rivet ID. I can imagine something with 2" spacing being fudged to work.

I'm just looking for a simple solution here that I can order and bolt on, and perhaps a little nicer than making a folded-over belt loop out of something stiff. (I can imagine doing that, but I don't have the right hardware for it, so at that point I'm buying something that will probably come in a pack I won't use the rest of anyway).

If there were something Tek-Lok-esque that was flat and either had slotted mounting or happened to be the right spacing, I could figure out spacers and hardware at that point.

Thanks rycen rycen for the idea. The Civivi T-clip would in fact seem to be an option that could bolt on and give me the spacing needed to scout carry it. I didn't really like the idea of using it on just the two vertical rivets, because then the sheath is kind of floating in space without being supported at the other horizontal one, and I'd be worried about it flopping around or getting snagged. What I wound up with is an Ulticlip XL and an Ultiplate to handle the weird rivet spacing, which seems to have worked okay.
