I like synthetics better than leather for the jungle. My leather sheaths have always rotted. SOE or SOTECH is making some that look nice, but I haven't tried them yet. I think one of them makes the sheaths for Stryder. My Gerber is in some kind of synthetic one now and I haven't had any problems with it.
Of course I'm not as active as I once was.

He knows only The Cause.
Still want to quit?
