Curved Scabbard - Leather

Every curved blade needs a proper sheath. The Curved Scabbard was designed with an idea of what it should be - a faithful leather companion to your sabres, cutlasses, falchions, and other curved swords that belong nowhere near a straight sheath. It is the final piece of gear that brings you kit from "almost there" to looking like you have been placed in a book of history or sea tale. 

If you’ve ever awkwardly shoved a curved weapon into a straight scabbard to the bemusement and concern of your peers, you know how terrible that feels. The blade looks bad, there is an odd protrusion - it's just not right. This scabbard solves that problem since it was purposefully designed for a curved product. The rounded sheath allows your sword to get into the scabbard naturally and ride against your side comfortably, flowing with you, instead of against you. 

Having sweat, dirt mud, and grime become "texture" is part of living with leather. It can be highly durable - a cowhide scabbard can take years of abuse, but over time, get soft and worn in a way that adventurers, soldiers and pirates alone can get away with. The finish will accept nearly any belt, pants or costume. You can also have the finish look bright and shiny, or lugged out and experienced like battle worn leather.

Practicality is built right in. The adjustable buckle system makes it easy to attach the scabbard to almost any belt, so you won’t waste time fiddling with awkward straps. Once it’s on, you’ve got both hands free and the confidence that your weapon is secure at your side. And when the moment comes, the draw is quick and smooth — perfect whether you’re stepping into a fight or making a dramatic entrance.

The scabbard holds a range of Epic Armoury curved swords, including the Cavalry Sabre, Curved Sabre, Curved Cutlass, and Falchion – Curved. That alone makes it a very good choice if you like switching out equipment or have lots of characters in different settings.

And of course, it's unmistakably perfect for pirates, but it's not just for them. Cavalry officers, swashbucklers, highwaymen, and fantasy adventurers all look more finished with a curved scabbard on their hip. A sword standing alone looks unfinished — but once you buckle it into place, the whole look just falls together.

Features:

• Designed to fit our curved blades: Cavalry and Curved sabres, Curved Cutlass, Falchion - Curved.
• Made from real leather for durability and authentic style.
• A slight curve allows the sword to sit naturally against your side
• Comfortable enough to wear for long durations, such as LARP battles or festivals
• The adjustable buckle system makes it easy to attach to most belts
• Ageing beautifully as the leather ages and softens
• A finishing piece for any pirate, cavalry, or adventurer costume.

You are not a particularly cruel person, but you are also not the type of person who accepts defeat easily. You are willing to train harder and longer than your fellow soldiers, and you do not accept anything less than perfection from yourself.

Your armour and weapons are no exception. The Full Scabbard at your waist keeps your sword sharp and conveniently at your side, ready to once again prove your skills in battle.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Large Full Scabbard is a long leather scabbard designed to protect your weapon from the elements, while keeping it conveniently close. This 87 cm scabbard will accommodate a weapon up to 6 cm wide. Soft polyester-wool padding has been added to the inside of the hoop to protect your weapon, while also making it easy to withdraw from the scabbard.

Match this Large Full Scabbard with any character you wish to equip by securing the holder to your belt through the belt straps. One strap is longer than the other, so the scabbard will sit on the belt at a comfortable angle. Made from vegetable-tanned full-grain leather and a hardened leather tip to prevent damage to your weapon, this weapon holder is built to keep its shape and withstand the abuse of a LARP with regular leather care.

HISTORY

• Historically made from a variety of materials, including leather, wood, and metal
• Typically worn suspended from the belt or baldric
• Protected the sword’s sharpened edge from becoming dull or accidentally harming the wearer

SIDE SELECTION: Right = Right-handed draw, sits on left hip. Left = Left-handed draw, sits on right hip.

The double back sword hanger from Epic Armoury holds two separate, adjustable leather sheaths and can be easy mounted over armor. Made from a thick vegetable tanned leather, this back scabbard can fit almost any type of straight-edged Larp sword due to the series of buckles on each frog. A long winding belt, embellished with embossing, serves as a harness that allows the warrior to fit it on the back or at the hip. This dual-weapon sword frog will endure hash combat and is lined with soft suede leather to protect your weapons against abrasion when withdrawing the swords. This incredible scabbard will fit well with any fantasy-based medieval character allowing an easy way to carry additional weapons.

As an Adventurer, you never know who you might be working for or what beast you’ll be sent to dispatch next. There’s only one thing for certain: if there’s enough money or glory to be had, you’re the right person for the job.

Admittedly, when the farmer came running into town claiming his crops had been torched, you hadn’t anticipated a trap. By the time you realized that the farmer was luring you into a bandit ambush, they already had you captured. At least your Adventure Sword is safe in your swordholder! Now, if you can just wiggle out of those ropes enough to grab the hilt…A bandit notices and takes your sword for himself.

You really need to rethink trusting farmers.

Her trusty sword was at her side, safe in its scabbard as she perched atop the mountain outcropping. She’d been tracking the ogres for days, and her energy flickered like a torch in the dead of night. But the weariness burned away with the speed of said torch catching on oil as she noticed that these tracks were fresh. The ogres had a camp nearby. Skipping lightly, she skidded down the other side of the outcropping, waving frantically to her allies. It was time to strike.

Epic Armoury's Sword Belt Scabbard is designed to fit with both the Sword Belt and the Laced Sword Belt, allowing both right and left-handed wielders to use it. It can be worn on other belts thanks to its D-rings and clips. It's made from smooth and slightly stiff leather and has a lining that ensures your weapon doesn't accidentally come loose.
