The above quote from my own post is why the balance between thick and thin is important. Thick (and slightly stiff) is less likely to cup, thin (and slightly pliable) conforms better to curved blades. Add to that personal taste in how you want it to feel (which may have nothing to do with how it works).
In this case thinner and more supple will pack much easier than mine would for sure and likely better if just for travel.

Your horsehide is more supple, isn't it? I may have to invest in one of those eventually...
