Pirate Baldric Leather Sword Belt - Handmade Brown Leather Shoulder Belt with Brass Buckle

Pirate Baldric Leather Sword Belt - Handmade Brown Leather Shoulder Belt with Brass Buckle

This medieval leather sword belt is an essential accessory for any enthusiast of historical weaponry and traditional craftsmanship. Unlike a standard waist belt, a baldric is designed to be worn diagonally across the shoulder and chest, distributing the weight of a sword or large blade more comfortably and securely.

Expertly handcrafted from durable yet supple brown leather, this baldric features a distinctive brass buckle reminiscent of medieval European styles. The wide strap features multiple adjustment holes and a rivet-reinforced construction to ensure a secure hold. A split end allows the scabbard to be securely fastened.

Historically, scabbards were widely adopted during the Middle Ages and Renaissance as a practical solution for knights, soldiers, and travelers who needed quick access to their swords while riding or on foot. Their design freed up the waist for carrying additional equipment and made carrying longer swords more practical.

This piece is perfect for collectors and history enthusiasts looking for an authentic touch for displays or living history demonstrations. Each belt is individually finished, highlighting the rich natural grain and warm tone of the leather.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS:

• Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
• Regularly apply leather conditioner to maintain suppleness.
• If exposed to moisture, let it air dry before storing.
