The significance of a scabbard for an outdoor knife is very important. It not only makes the knife easy to carry, but also protects the knife from adverse natural weather and accidental wear and tear when worn. Therefore, the importance of the scabbard cannot be ignored. Next, let's introduce the materials of kydex scabbard and their respective advantages and disadvantages.
Kydex sheath is a thermoplastic material made by casting acrylic and polyvinyl chloride compounds. At its inception, it was used as an interior material for aircraft and is now more widely used. Generally speaking, it can be used to make knife covers, gun covers, and other items.
The biggest advantage of the K sheath is its durability - whether submerged in saltwater or exposed to different environments, Kydex's retention and durability are excellent.
The advantages of K-sheaths are obvious, but they also have some drawbacks. The most unacceptable thing for beauty enthusiasts is that they do not have the same good ornamental value as leather knife covers. In addition, there will be a sound when pulling or retracting the knife from the K sheath, and if the knife is continuously pulled or inserted from the K sheath for a long time, the blade will become dull.
