It is no secret that since 1995, the Swedish Air Force have used the Fallkniven Model F1 as its official survival knife but, what many don't know is what the Air Force sheath looks like, and where the sheath is located.
The knife is stored in a specially made polymer sheath in a small leg pocket on the right thigh - just where you have the best access to the knife in a cramped cockpit. There the sheath is held in place by a push button and, as you pull down the flight suit's pocket's zip, you can grab the knife handle and pull the knife out of the Fallkniven F1 Swedish Airforce Sheath.
This sheath is not designed for belt carry. Instead it works very well with the knife in a leg pocket, not so common in the Nordic countries, but very common in central European countries. This sheath has no additional retention - the knife can be pulled out of the sheath without pressing any buttons - the knife sits deep and secure through friction in the tight polymer sheath.
