I do have Intersect and the sheath is so much better imo. However the handle isnt glued well to the tang, so everytime you squeeze it, it opens tiny bit ://
Have you checked out Walker Knife Co? They're local to me in Maine and make knives specifically for a PFD. I'm surprised Benchmade dropped the ball so hard on this sheath, seems like a great knife otherwise.
I put it on a TekLok using one of slots and first hole under slot used TekLot mounting hardware and rubber washers that comes with them to create correct spacing. I have three screw into TekLok
@@kennethkuhlman8864 Yes I can do that. I do agree that BM kinda missed the mark on the sheath the holes could have been thought out better and they could offer some adapter like you said that plugs into those slots.
I zip-tie my H2O sheath right to the gear. The spine/jimping lock on the original sheath has been an amazing feature and survived literally hundreds of jumps and dives and rough seas.
Not too happy with mine, The magnacut is nice, but I feel the blade should have been thicker so it could be used for emergency prying. The sheath is a total joke, the biggest issue being that the release button is far too easy to activate if caught accidentally. Only a matter of time before I lose the knife into water when the release catch gets caught up on my pfd.
Exactly. Do they actually field test these things with people or do they sit in their tower and look down upon us while wiping their nose with our money.
Even I could tell that the sheath wasn’t going to work from the photos they released. I can’t believe no one at Benchmade caught these issues before it was released to the public.
Thanks for sharing this with us. I want to get one but I was dubious about the sheath. Lately Benchmade has been falling down big time on factory sheaths. I just about always buy a Armatus Carry sheath for any Benchmade fixed blade, if one is available. If Armatus has a sheath I may buy the Undercurrent knife…
I can't help but feel like this wouldn't work for me for a devoted dive knife. I'd want a blunt tip, a dual-sided blade (one fully serrated one plain), and a tank tapper. This as none of that, and it appears not to come with straps. As a knife for any other water use, sure.
