Abstract
A sheath has a sheath body having a front plate and a back plate spaced apart from the front plate. The front plate and back plate define a cavity within the sheath body. The cavity is externally accessible through an opening formed between the front plate and the back plate. Snapping fasteners are positioned about a front side and a back side of the back plate. The snapping fasteners each include a male component and a female component. The male component and female component of each fastener are mounted on opposite sides of the back plate. The male component includes a protrusion extending away from the sheath body. The female component defines a recess that is complimentary to the protrusion.
