Not sure if this is here or not already Backstory so I’m one of those paranoid people who have an irrational fear of things going wrong even if they won’t (yes the scouts say be prepared lol). my question is I just got my izula 2 today and looked at the detents on the sheath and noticed them kinda rounding off and leaving a little plastic coming off. I understand that it would be Normal as it is breaking in. I guess I’m just asking the life expectancy of the sheath as a edc?
Bro, my clip plate is developing rust from EDC literally every damn day for two + years, and the knife has yet to fall out. I wear it horizontal appendix mounted, and I do a lot of outside work--no detent failure yet.
Thanks that’s what I have read and such again irrational things…..I mean esee makes great trusted outdoor gear right?!?! Thanks again
Have had my Izula for years and the sheath still holds strong. It does show quite a bit of wear but it is mostly cosmetic...
I have had an Izula 2 since they came out many years ago, it rode in my front pocket for the first 2 years and never cam out of the sheath. It has been neck carried and strapped to bags and is now the misses edc and still no sheath failure.
My experience with the Izula sheaths is that they will work until you lay them down somewhere or drop them where they can't be retrieved. Or maybe drop them in a campfire but I fortunately haven't tried that yet... Love the Izula and Zancudo sheaths and wish ESEE had similar for all their knives. Solid, durable, versatile and modifiable.
All of the plastic sheaths have this initial wear on the detents, but they hold good retention for years.
