I'm a vegan blade afficiando, with a two handed scottish claymore that's in need of a sheath. Non leather, of course. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance...!
Thanks to all...and an additional question to buckaroo - I've been thinking that making my own *is* the way to go. Are there any good tutorials/books out there on the web or elsewhere that I could use as a springboard? (This is a 2 handed Scottish claymore, pretty darned heavy!!) Best and thanks...
Irony of a vegan sword-wielding aside, Wooden scabbards have long been used for thier durability and wonderful ability to be used as a parrying stick in the off hand. The only kicker is that the have to be-custom made for the shape of the blade, as they don't strecth like a conventaial blade. FOr a easier solution, a lot of us have made linen carry-bags for our swords, the linen does'nt trap moisture, so while not as long lasting, is far better for the sword in the long run.
