The knife in the kydex sheath is held deep in the boot with only the ring above the boot to make it less visible so is needed for extracting it from the boot. The leather sheath is for when she is wearing a dress but not high boots so it is strapped to the leg. Both sheaths hold the knife secure with the handle held close to the top part of the sheath so again the ring pull is needed to extract it from the sheath.
