I have two older model River Rescue knifes. The old style sheath is designed to attach to a PFD and will not work on a belt. They offer the Tek-Lok as a retrofit, but I find these bulky and don't care for them.
I noticed while perusing their website that they have renamed the knife "River/Dive" and redesigned the sheath. It now accepts a standard belt loop as well as the PFD clip.
I called Benchmade to see about getting one of the new sheaths for my knife. I spoke to Diane at the 800 number. She indicated that the handles had also been slightly redesigned and that my knife wouldn't fit the new sheath. She then offered to refit the knives with the new style handles (stocks, scales?) and upgrade me to the new sheath. No charge!
If you're looking for a knife, look toward Benchmade. They make a fine product (I have about half a dozen) and provide exceptional customer service. We don't often see that anymore.
