Leather Sword Hanger, Two-Part Set, Renaissance Style, Adjustable
Carry Your Sword with Style and Security
This sword hanger is crafted from strong, durable leather that can handle even heavier weapons. The set includes one longer and one shorter strap, ensuring that your weapon hangs at the optimal angle on your belt—the hilt is easily accessible for a quick draw, while the scabbard tip won't get in your way. Each strap has a loop at the top to fit onto a belt up to 7 cm wide. The lower loops for securing the scabbard are closed with practical brass screw rivets, which you can easily loosen and tighten by hand without any tools.
How to Properly Attach and Adjust the Hanger
Installing this hanger is intuitive and quick. Follow these steps to perfectly secure your weapon:
- Slide both straps (the shorter and the longer one) onto your belt and position them on your hip at the desired distance from each other.
- Unscrew and remove the brass rivet on one of the straps.
- Insert the upper part of your scabbard through the loop you've just opened.
- Screw the rivet back in, choosing one of the slots to ensure the loop holds the scabbard firmly but safely.
- Repeat the same process with the second strap on the lower part of the scabbard.
Congratulations, your sword is now ready to be worn, just like a 16th-century Landsknecht or musketeer!
The Hanger Through the Ages
The method of carrying a sword has constantly evolved throughout history. While simple frogs were common in the early Middle Ages, the two-part suspension system became popular with the advent of longer, slimmer weapons like side-swords and rapiers during the Renaissance. This style, which allowed the weapon to be carried at an angle, was not only practical for moving through crowded cities but also became a fashion statement and a sign of the social standing of a nobleman or soldier.
