Weathered & beaten look is intentional - I like my LARP stuff to look lived-in. Oh, quite nice. Very period-connected feel to whole piece. Strangely enough I'm drawn to how you connected the belt straps. That's a nice detail. Where did you get the concho ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
douglais Report post Posted September 8, 2012 I love the look. Very Norse style scabbard attachment system. I'm gonna steal your idea of using the leather tabs to hold the rings. I've only seen the brass tabs. I bet they don't let you onto the field of combat with that sharp knife? Made this scabbard for a new dagger I picked up recently.

daveydude Report post Posted September 13, 2012 Thanks Douglas - steal away The knife is actually a foam & latex one for LARP, looks pretty realistic in the pic I guess! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FirstNick Report post Posted December 22, 2012 Really nice craftwork! May I ask how you made the Weathered & beaten look? A rock on the leather while it is moisty? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Charke Report post Posted January 2, 2013 I love that people mistake Latex weapons for real ones. We had an off-duty ghost car pull over and grab one of our guys walking home. Dude was wearing real scale mail and carrying a latex two handed sword over his shoulder walking down the street to the bus. He explained things to the officer and everything was fine. I love the sheath. I've made a few simple ones and the short and long strap make a lot more sence to me now. I have a simple trick for weathering my gear.... ....I just LARP in it a lot. I figure you got that texture on the strap by rolling or curling it and then dying it? Mark Charke Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
