Kevin - The front space is right under the velcro. Not real big, or stretchy, but it's there.

And I have had nothing but wonderful experiences with Leatherman. Carried one most of my Army career. I think my first one was purchased mail order when I was in Germany in 1985 and have had at least one handy ever since. That original one rides in my wife's truck. She claimed it. Have a belt holster that holds a leatherman, a sak and a AAA maglite and a pen. Never left home without it.

A buddy broke his doing something stupid one time and it was replaced no questions asked.
