Description
This baldric is crafted from thick black leather, reinforced with sturdy brass rivets to withstand the rigors of battle and daily wear. Its length can be adjusted to suit the wearer’s build and preferred weapon height, allowing the blade to hang comfortably at the hip. The broad shoulder rest spreads the weight evenly across the shoulder, reducing fatigue during long marches or combat.
Two adjustable leather straps secure the sword scabbard firmly in place. These straps are designed to hold not only a sword but can be tightened to accommodate the haft of an axe or mace, offering versatility for different weapons. The configuration is tailored specifically for a right-handed warrior, positioning the weapon for swift and natural access.
Please Note: The gambeson, sword, and scabbard shown are for display purposes only and are not included.
Fun Fact: Baldric straps like these were often used by mounted knights and foot soldiers alike, allowing them to carry their weapons securely while keeping their hands free for other tasks.
