I grew up in the 80s with those amazing and 100% true to life ninja movies. You know the ones where they had like 87 weapons concealed on their person somehow. I remember dressing up like a ninja as a kid and secretly stashing all my toy swords, knives, throwing stars, and any other ninja paraphernalia in random places in my ninja outfit. I remember being so annoyed and pissed when I'd jump or do a somersault only to have half of my ninja gear spill out everywhere. (Especially if it was an official ninjitsu demonstration for my mom...how unprofessional) I guess that's the real ninja magic. Don't worry though, I'm 41 now and I've almost got it down. Lol

Hey thats pretty clever, same idea as a sword frog but i can imagine those not being universal for all types of swords

I always live remembering that the people whose lives depended on these weapons were largely making up their own rules. There's no reason they wouldn't have been debating the merits of different styles of wear and even combat. If we think it's convenient now, it's likely someone thought it was convenient then. People have an awful tendency to treat a single historical example that happened to survive as the immutable standard.

This blade was used as a sidearm in the 1400s. Its name means 'cat's claw' and it is specifically used for brutal, up-close battles. Most warfare of the time was conducted by massed pike blocks, and this was the weapon you carried in case you found yourself in the midst of such a formation.

Thank god im not the only one impressed by the drip. Wearing that back in the day wouldve been epic

"How's it hanging?" Down and out

Sometimes they wore the hilt right at the crotch. Landsknechte were the true badasses of their time.

Katsbalger is the sword you get when you want to really be fancy, the most meteosexual sword ever made. That's why I love mine. Lol.

Ah yes, the 'wii mote strap' knot

Damn Boy, you look dapper in this outfit

immaculate drip! I shallt get me a pair

Ya look good but I have some advice that’ll throw the style up a notch. Your face should have a smaller profile, I don’t know how you could accomplish that… maybe a bandana or a headband. But that would complete the look entirely.

cool trick, gonna share this with my ancestors from few centuries ago

This knot is usually called a cows hitch i think but you've modified the knot by putting a tail back through nice idea

Pretty similar to how we tie a rope for lassoing

Great style!

Fit go crazy

Btw, the original knot before you lock it off is called a Lark's Head Knot.

Thanks!

Sailing hitch & an overturned half hitch is what he did if any are curious.

This is going to come in handy at some point. I don’t know when, but I know it will.

Holy shit my man’s pants are PACKIN’!

This will work well for my scimitar

You are securing a cats claw sword with a cats paw knot

I've seen this fella in Novigrad before

Fresh fit

You should try a clove hitch or constrictor knot. It should lay better and is less likely to slip.

Regarding the amount of Fabric, looped in/ through the front, is this where the phrase, *"The Whole Nine Yards,"* originated?

Good i could use it on Jian, Katana, and Saber scabbards

for the Gen Z out there, this is the medieval equivalent of smartphone, it even come with the case

Prussik knot. Can also do a double prussik to lock it.
