"A blade ill-slung is a liability in a skirmish; your scabbard must rest true and yield swiftly to the hand." Osric, Keeper of the Hearth & Forge
Rooted in historical patterns worn by infantry, knights, and roaming mercenaries from the fourteenth century into the Renaissance, this medieval leather sword frog delivers prompt, unimpeded access to your steel. Positioned on the hip opposite your dominant hand, the angled cross-draw arrangement reduces draw resistance significantly, whether advancing on foot or sitting astride a horse.
Shaped by hand from thick, hard-wearing leather and bound with brass buckles and rivets, this frog is built to endure the rigours of tournament rings and campaign marches. Its semi-rigid constitution keeps the sheath upright and dependable, preventing unwanted sway whilst flexing naturally against your belt and hip. Dual adjustable straps accommodate an array of sidearms, gripping firmly onto arming swords, curved sabres, and historical fencing blades without marring the scabbard leather.
Finished with smooth folded edges and clean stitching, this frog complements formal court dress and weathered field harnesses alike. The natural leather will develop individual grain and an honest patina through service. To preserve its field readiness, keep it clear of damp conditions, treat the hide periodically with leather conditioner, and polish the brass hardware to retain its lustre. Hang it vertically between campaigns so it retains its rightful form.
