Description
This leather sword belt is built to reliably hold your sword scabbard, using two strong straps that thread through the scabbard’s rings. The belt is fitted with solid brass hardware, prized for its strength and resistance to rust, and can be adjusted to fit waist sizes between 37 and 42 inches. If a snugger fit is needed, the leather can be punched with extra holes without compromising its integrity.
The buckle bears a raised relief of an eagle in flight, gripping a banner inscribed with “E Pluribus Unum”. This motto, meaning “Out of many, one,” was a common emblem on Union sword belts, symbolizing the unity of the states and the soldier’s commitment to the cause.
Fun fact: Union soldiers often customized their sword carrying belts by adding small pouches, decorative touches, or personal inscriptions, turning a simple piece of equipment into a unique companion on the march and battlefield.
