Great thread. Kydex is strong, protective, does not absorb water, can be molded to create a secure fit for a specific application. All good.

It is also noisy. When out it the woods, the sound of a pack buckle or rifle sling hitting a kydex sheath makes a distinctly unnatural sound that seems to carry for miles. (Even a stick or rock scraping a sheath can be noisy.) I like my Kydex covered in a noise dampening material (typically nylon).

Just my $0.02 (AF script)
