I've got a Mora with the plastic sheath. It appears to be a belt sheath but the slit is too narrow for a heavy duty leather belt. Also, it is sort of slotted as if to accept some sort of swivel clip or something. How are these designed to be worn anyway?

Most Mora sheaths are designed to fit on a button.

I asked Ragweed Forge about the sheath. He suggested I trim the plastic and rivet a leather belt loop to it. Instead I just put a carabiner on it and clip it to a belt loop.

I bought my one Mora used from an old trapper/guide in British Columbia. Besides all of the great stories he told me about that blade, and others in his collection, he had tossed the factory sheath years ago and made a nice high riding open top pouch tyle sheath for it. Leather beats cheap plastic every time...

You might try to make a "frog" the same as is used to carry swords.
