Which is the correct spelling and what is the difference?

I'm trying to write a short story, and the internet is giving me conflicting or confusing answers, so maybe ya'll can weigh in.

The character is putting a tool away carried in one of several pouches sewn to a long leather sash worn over the shoulder and across his chest, tucked at the opposite hip.

The websight I looked at makes the distinction based on whether ammunition or grenades are stored on it on how you spell it, but that isn't useful. Any thoughts?

Pretty sure it's spelled like the latter but said like the former. Like how "Kuykendahl" is spelled... the way it is; but it's pronounced "Ker-ken-doll"

I wasn't sure how to spell it and used google. The results didn't help.

Either is acceptable, but the latter is more common

If they're interchange I like the 'ie' spelling better, but I'm a little anal and wanted to be sure. Thank you.
