Hey all,
I'm looking for a MOLLE pouch for my 8 inch training knife, I need it in OD green. Has anyone seen one or would they have more luck finding one than me?

Knife hit the nail on the head, those are the ones I recommend to ANYONE needing to carry a fixed handle knife. But, the bigger question is, what do you need that knife for that a folder couldn't?
It can save you a lot of weight and room on your kit.
Either way, Spec-Ops Brand is great stuff, lifetime warrenty, hardcore reliable, gear is awesome.

Its a training knife. Hence, he gets knifekills with it.

I know, but honestly, would you want me to open up my folder to knife kill you? I'm just making mention that you really don't need an 8 inch blade to get a knife kill. I just like having less weight and less bulk.

That's like saying, My Airsoft M16 is too long, I'm going to use my real steal glock to get the range, because its smaller. A real knife is a weapon. It does not belong on an airsoft field. Simple as that.

Have you seen the folder I have in my kit? There's no blade in it when I take it to events? I have one with a blade inside my camelbak if I do need a blade, which, at times, I do. The one I use for knife kills is in a pistol pouch mounted sideways on the front of my IBA. Real easy to take the blade out of it, and now it's just as safe as a resin training knife.

Hey all, I'm looking for a MOLLE pouch for my 8 inch training knife, I need it in OD green. Has anyone seen one or would they have more luck finding one than me? If you are using it for a Cold Steel knife like I do, you'll have to take the Kydex insert out for the blade to fit. Hungry, you've seen my Cold Steel in the Spec ops sheath. Minimal weight, and no bulk. It looks cool as hell and has a more realistic feel, dragging a "blade" across someone instead of an empty folder. SWAT, I've seen Hungry's "airsoft folder". He's exactly right when he says he doesn't have the blade in it. He's not an idiot and I know you never said he was. However I carry an actual blade with me at all times when playing and when I say carry, I mean I actually have the knife on my person, not in a bag. I carry this along with a Leatherman and an Allen key set.

Yeah, the thing to remember though, is I have the need to actually carry real knives, the big problem with the real ones is the bulk and weight, granted the problem with the Cold Steel trainers is they don't replicate weight. Anyway, enough of all this, this got taken way off topic.
Either way, good piece of gear, if you do get one, I know you'll enjoy it. I'm not trying to dog you out for wanting an 8 inch knife, because sometimes I do carry my 7in Ka-Bar (not for airsoft). I just prefer to carry a folder due to the compact size and ease of storage. I'm actually still looking for a new one that will fit in MOLLE webbing.
But anyway, post up some pics when your loadout is finished.

Thanks all...I'll have to order one of those when they get them in stock. And I'll definitely post some pics once my load is complete...might be a while though?
And to whoever mentioned the "Cold Steel" one, Yes that is the one that I have.
