I think they are a little low.
There seems to be a thought that hand made products by skilled craftsmen such as you should be priced alongside Chinese factory made goods. I disagree with this.
If you check the prices that Woodlore charges for sheathes and belts they are twice as much as makers here charge, I think the Woodlore prices realistic. If we push much lower it won't be worth the time and effort.

Maybe I'm going to buy one too, but the price is more that double the price of the knife. That's weird :P

All that means is that the knife is cheap, not that the sheath is expensive.
I concur with what other's have said, they look fantastic quality and I would have one if my monetary positioning was a bit better at the moment.

I appreciate the comments from everyone;)
I have put off actively trying to sell my work for several reasons, one of which is not being sure what to ask price wise.
It takes about three days for me to do a basic sheath from start to finish, obviously not 36 hours of course. More like maybe 5 hours in total, spread out. works out at about £5 an hour?
It's a hobby for me, which I enjoy very much and like to try to encourage others to have a go for themselves. Many people don't wish to have a go themselves but like the idea of "upgrading"
