Weapon Clasp

So, when my new swords turned out to be ever so slightly too large to fit a Paddywhack weaponhanger, I set about manufacturing something new.

With Linda’s invaluable assistance I have managed to assemble the following, and thought I’d post a few photographs.

It’s a simple design, with not much cost or construction effort involved. 2 strips of Leather, 1 strip of faux fur, 12 rivets, 2 snap clasps, ados.

Testing it, it seems fairly strong and will hold the weapon. It can be easily unsnapped and the weapon drawn with two hands, it is a little trickier with one hand(!) . It can also act as a sheath type hanger, a simple draw action works still.

Cool lookin! Bring 'em on Thursday to training. I wanna see. =)
