My Kydex sheath is too tight. How do I adjust it for tension?
If your Kydex sheath needs adjusting, you may send it in to our Consumer Services Department at SOG. Should you desire to adjust it yourself (and possibly void the warranty), follow these instructions. To loosen your Kydex sheath, take the “lip” tightly in your fingers and from the top, bend it slightly but firmly outward (about a third of an inch), holding it for about ten seconds, then checking the new tension with the knife. You may need to repeat this process several times until the desired tension is reached. It is conceivable to get it too loose by overadjusting. Beware when adjusting: You do not want to pull too far, or repeat this process for an infinite number of times because the Kydex can be overbent and the lip can either break or become ineffective. If you go too far and it becomes too loose, push the top of the lip inward (all the way down) and hold for ten seconds. Once you get it where you like it, leave it there.
