The two halves of the sheath are hollow riveted together, so you can choose any bolt-on mounting system. As delivered, the sheath has two 2M Molle straps fitted which can be woven into PALS webbing. However, a point to mention is that the 2M straps don&#8217;t have a cross-web themselves, so they are wrapped around two rows of the PALS webbing, and not actually woven in.<br \/>\nThe molding is very precise, and where the handle grip sits within the mouth of the sheath, you can see the handle milled grip texture impressed in the Kydex which makes the retention very secure.<br \/>\n<style

Hard Task &#8211; Things to look out for here are:<\/b><\/p>\n<p>There is a subtle recurve on the M200&#8217;s flat ground blade. A nice feature ANV have included is a slightly enlarged sharpening choil, that is in fact a firesteel scraper. Grip on the M200 is excellent, with a shaped first finger groove, the milled texture G10 handle grips, and curved handle. A generous section of jimping on the spine for the thumb adds further grip. Also shown is the beautifully shaped palm swell adding yet more grip stability.<\/p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\n#foogallery-gallery-11826 .fg-image { width: 150px; }\n#foogallery-gallery-11826 {

sits in the hand so well. The ergonomics are a stand out aspect of the M200.<br \/>\nSheathing and unsheathing is spot on, with the Kydex gripping the M200 securely, but the sheath shoulders giving a comfortable thumb rest to apply pressure to release the knife.<br \/>\nWith the 2M MOLLE straps that are provided, these have a loop which is really too wide to belt mount, so unfortunately if you want to do anything other than MOLLE mount the M200, you will need to source and fit different mounts.<br \/>\nPictured in this gallery is my normal fire steel. Not messing around with smaller versions, I have 13mm firesteels, which do not fit into the firesteel notch of the M200, so I had to dig out a smaller version to test it. I also found the curve on curve contact area seemed less eager to spark than a straight scraper. It worked, but if anything I&#8217;m tempted to cut in a straight scraper on the spine of the Hard Task myself.<br \/>\nIn terms of size, the M200 hits that sweet spot of being big enough to do most jobs and not too big to be carried easily, or be unwieldy in use. The comfort and security of handling makes the M200 a joy to use.<\/p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\n#foogallery-gallery-11840 .fg-image { width: 150px; }\n#foogallery-gallery-11840 { --fg-gutter:
