My shoes 'make a funny sound' when I walk

Question

I was reviewing the words I wrote down from movies when I came across the word squech and I had two example written next to it, one from a movie and the other probably from a reading.

I remember the scene was showing a sword thrusted at someone across his body and to show the sound of that it was put (squeching) under.

The other example goes like this my shoes squeching when I walk.

Now I'm searching and I can't find it! I've tried similar words but they don't make sense here. Probably I made a spelling mistake while writing it down and now I feel frustrated. What's the word?

Thanks

I think you might be thinking of squelch or a "wet sucking sound". If you fell into a swimming pool fully dressed, your shoes would squelch as you walked after you got out of the pool.

I remember it by thinking of squish (wet noise) + belch (air noise or burp). There are some examples of squelching noises, including "A sword slicing a human, gory" sample, on this SoundSnap page.
