Abstract

This disclosure describes a knife having tool-less removable scales. The knife includes a blade having a cutting edge and a tang having one or more apertures formed therein; a first scale removably coupled to a second scale, the first and second scales releasably coupled to each other through the one or more apertures and positioned on either side of the tang, the first scale comprising a scale release actuator that is biased at least partially through an opening in the second scale such that the second and first scales are locked together until the scale release actuator is depressed. The disclosure also describes a knife sheath with a rotatable clip that can be rotated by releasing two halves of a compression bracket, moving a first half of the compression bracket away from the sheath, and rotating the clip once a toothed engagement is disengaged.
