    How about chape? That's the moving part of the buckle, the piece with the prong that goes through the hole. The buckle is actually the fixed part.

    No, I'm not brilliant, I was looking up sheaths to answer the dirk question on another thread when I came across this. It's also the metal piece around the opening of the sheath.
