AFF and BadnArder, both your points are valid and I am not really knocking kydex just showing MY personal favorite. I have leather and kydex for some of my knives, for different purposes. Kydex if it's a grab, shove into your belt and go and if it will get banged around some. For comfort and ease of carry (for me and my fat gut) leather. Oh and looks too.
I agree with you. I too have both. I guess it depends on my mood on what i carry. I do use kydex mostly when I carry my knife in my pack. There are a lot of city people on trails which are close to me and I do not want to appear aggressive to them. However, I always take a large knife, just in case..
