Problems solved by technology

However, sheaths or holders or the like are not available for every tool or accessory desired by the activity participant.

For example, in the fishing field, sheaths or holders or the like for use in conjunction with belts are not available for every tool or accessory needed by the fisherman.

However, current practice allows for a risk that such items will not be within reach when needed, thereby placing the fisherman at risk of wasting valuable fishing time and / or losing a fish on the line.

In addition, the belts themselves are often unavailable to the activity participant.

For example, in the fishing field, offshore or wading fisherman who have forgotten, lost or damaged their belt often will be very far distances from retrieving or replacing their belt.

Similarly, hikers or climbers who have lost, damaged or forgotten their belt often will be very far distances from retrieving or replacing their belt.

Thus, current practice allows for a risk that a needed tool or accessory (e.g., knife, carabiner, etc.) will not be readily accessible to the activity participant.

However, current practice allows for a risk that a line-cutting knife will not be within reach when needed, thereby placing the fisherman at risk of being pulled overboard by a strong fish.
