LegendWith a satisfied grunt, Roric lifted his blade from the whetstone and tested the edge with his calloused thumb. Perfect. For a modest man-at-arms like himself, owning such a weapon was a real achievement and the rugged soldier was taking care of his treasure almost as if it was his own child. This was why he didn't wait long to order a scabbard worthy of this noble sword. The last thing he wanted was to look like one of those amateurs sticking their blade inside their belt, or casually roaming the streets with a death tool on their shoulder. He grunted with disdain at the thought. No, he was better than that, he was a professional.DescriptionThis rigid leather-covered scabbard holds your blade with great support and an authentic historical finish. The straps can be adjusted according to a wide variety of angles for optimal comfort and to guarantee increased fluidity when it's time to release or sheath your weapon while LARPing. Being rigid, it's an optimal scabbard to add a bit of decorum to any medieval character, giving your outfit an additional degree of historicity for your favorite LARP event. It fits any straight foam swords from the Calimacil, Epic Armoury and Stronghold brands. It is best suited for latex-free weapons and will be a great accessory for your warriors, knights, mercenaries, and soldiers.CharacteristicsMaterials: Leather, Antique brass-plated metal, Sturdy ABS tubing, Calimacil foam extremitiesSize: MediumLength (cm): 65Colors: Black/Steel, Black/Gold, Brown/Steel, Brown/GoldCreated to fit Calimacil, Epic Armoury and Stronghold swordsAdjustable to different anglesAvailable for left-handed and right-handed users* Made in Quebec (Canada) for Calimacil by Les Artisans d'Azure

As a boy , Graham Askew always wondered how armored knights could move and fight. When he became a biomechanical expert at the University of Leeds, he decided to find out by putting historical re-enactors in full armor on a treadmill.
