Talking about scabbard material.
Saw this poundable edging at a local Ace Hardware last month
and immediately thought it might be useful for sheaths.
I think tough is the key word.

Although they call it fiberglass, it feels more like Tyvek to me.
Whatever the fiber used, the binder is flexible rather than hard resin.
About 1/8" thick & 4" wide. Stiff. Dark green.
About $1 per foot length.
Comes in rolls.
