I do prefer leather since it a medium I have more working time with. I desire to improve my ability building them too. Some really well crafted sheaths from makers that inspire me to do more than some basic ones.

The thickness of thermo plastic is a nice part but the plastic in itself does have issues in use that leather doesn't and so forth between them. Tough to decide for certain uses. For the knife in mind a leather sheath comes out to be in the 1.5" overall thickness where the plastic sheath variant is about .50" less thickness.
