You can buy scabbards in most sizes, or just take the bar and chain off the power head when you have finished and put it back on when you want to do the next work.

That's what i do with mine have a tool bag take bar off which is in scabbard place in bottom then saw sits on top inside bag can get two saws in there as saw with 24" takes up a lot of room

But then the scabbard could be a sheath. I'm getting confused, it doesn't take much these days.

Scabbard for a sabre or sword, sheath for a knife, hence a "sheath knife".
