museumtom Posted 28 July , 2010 Share Posted 28 July , 2010 Has anyone ever come across a belt like this before? I think it might be a sword hanger. The way the shoulder strap hangs under the belt confuses me. Any help would be very much appreciated. http://s888.photobucket.com/albums/ac88/tomburnell/?action=view¤t=101_1650.jpg Thanking you in advance. Kind regards. Tom.

Mike_H Posted 28 July , 2010 Share Posted 28 July , 2010 Tom It is a sword belt and the two sword slings have been fastened together - they should separate and then you can attach them to the rings on a scabbard. M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
museumtom Posted 28 July , 2010 Author Share Posted 28 July , 2010 Thanks Mike, I sorta kinda had an idea thats what it was. You dont happen to know of an image on the net where it shows one please?
