I have a Remora knive from U-K. I do not like the scabbard's attachment options. Either thru the BCD or onto a hose. Are there any bungee type attachments or other solutions for this knife? I want to put it on my calf.

Why would You put Your knife on Your Calf????? If the leg gets fouled in a line or fishing line will It cut itself out??
In the Navy I was taught to keep the knife on the upper body for ease of removal to cut Yourself out of tangles. If the knife is on the calf then gets caught up it will only compound the problems. Keep the knife close to the body to access easily....Bill

You might be able to use the ocean master soft sheath:

Why don't you want to attach it to the bcd?

Your dive knive should be someplace you can reach it with either hand. NOT on your leg, unless it's on the inside of your leg so either hand can get to it. But as mentioned, what if it's that leg what's entrapped? Mine is on my BC where I can get to it fast and with either hand.

That's my two cents worth,

Randy
