Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a knife sheath that stores the blade portion when not in use.

In conventional knives of this type, the sheath and the blade are sandwiched to some extent from both sides of the blade to prevent it from falling off naturally.

Therefore, when removing both, it was common to hold the sheath in one hand and the handle of the knife in the other hand and pull both in opposite directions.

In that case, if the sheath was tightly attached to the blade, there was a risk that the force holding the sheath would be injured by the recoil when it was pulled out.

Furthermore, in the case of a blade and scabbard as shown in Fig. 1, it is sometimes necessary to press the lower corner of the proximal end of the scabbard with the thumb, which may result in injury to the thumb.

The purpose of this invention is to allow the scabbard to be easily removed from the blade with one hand, and also to allow the fingers to be safely used on the finger rest even when the fingers are wet with water or sweat. It is there to provide the structure of the sheath.

- An example will be explained with reference to FIG. 1. In the drawing, 1 is a knife, 2 is a handle thereof, and 3 is a blade portion.

4 is a scabbard of the present invention, and on one side of the proximal end of the blade portion 3 on the insertion port 5 side, there is a flat plate finger in the shape of a chevron half-flange extending in a direction substantially perpendicular to the length direction of the sheath 4. A hook portion 6 is provided integrally and protrudes, and the side surface of the finger hook portion 6 serves as a finger rest portion 6a.

Now, to remove the knife 1 from the sheath 4, grip the handle 2, press the thumb of the gripping hand against the finger contact surface 6a of the finger rest 6, and press the sheath 4.
can be easily separated from the blade portion 3.

Furthermore, when fitting, when the sheath is almost fitted, the fitting can be completed by placing the thumb on the tip of the finger hook 6 and pulling it.

The finger rest 6 is provided at a right angle to the sheath 4, so even if your fingers are wet with water, sweat, etc., they will not slip, and the blade part 3 will not slip.
It can be reliably attached and detached.

In this way, the present invention places the finger hook part 6 on the sheath 4 on the side of the sheath insertion opening 5 when removing the sheath 4 from the blade 3.
By protruding in a direction substantially perpendicular to the length direction and forming the finger hook part 6 in a brim shape, the sheath 4 can be safely and easily removed with one hand even when the fingers are wet. Therefore, it is a practical idea as a knife sheath.
