Hi Katana,

When making your scabbard, you must decide what kind of scabbard it is going to be, as not all Indian swords were hanging, a lot of them were carried in the hand, or stuck into the belt, but these had no fittings for hanging. If we change from the khandas to the firangis, then I don’t think I have seen a firangi with rings for hanging – maybe be course it was usually too long to draw when hanging from a belt, who knows.

Nice pictures Galvano.
