A rubberized 14 in curved scabbard with a snap to keep the saw in place.
This Weaver rubberized saw scabbard has a curved back and a snap closure for 14 in hand saws. It holds a curved pruning saw securely on a belt or saddle and sheds water and sap better than bare material.
A saw that drops out of its scabbard is a hazard to the people below. The snap on this scabbard adds retention, and the rubberized finish stands up to wet days, sap and rough handling. The curved back matches curved pruning saws so the blade slides in without binding.
This is the HL 14 size for 14 in blades. Other scabbards and pole saw gear are in pole saws and scabbards.
A rubberized scabbard is a sensible choice for crews that work through wet seasons or in sappy species like pine. Water and pitch wipe off the surface rather than soaking in, and the sheath holds its shape longer than one that gets soaked and dried over and over.
Place the scabbard where you can reach it with either hand if possible, and away from your climbing line and lanyard. Close the snap whenever you move in the tree or walk the site.
Rinse off sap and grit and let it dry. Check the snap and mount from time to time, and replace the scabbard if the saw tip starts to wear through.
If you carry the saw on a belt on the ground, the snap is just as useful when you bend, kneel and drag brush all day.

It helps hold the saw in the scabbard while you climb, so the saw does not slide out when you are upside down or moving.
