Handcrafted Pirate Baldric

Historical Inspiration

Step aboard with this pirate baldric, a shoulder belt built in the spirit of the sea rovers who prowled the Caribbean. Pirates, musketeers and infantrymen of centuries past favoured the baldric because it kept the blade high, clear of the deck and the mud, and left the waist free for pistols, pouches and sashes.

The Pirate Baldric: Material and Features

This pirate baldric is cut from genuine leather and finished with a large solid brass buckle. It is worn diagonally across the chest, so the weight of your blade rests on the shoulder and torso instead of tugging at your hips.

• Genuine Leather: 3-3.2 mm sturdy, long-lasting and durable, the leather retains its shape with regular wear.
• Frog: The slotted leather cradle at the bottom holds a sword, scabbard or cutlass securely at the hip for a quick, efficient draw.
• Lace-Up Closure: A reinforced lace-up closure keeps your sword secure in place.
• Solid Brass Buckle: A large, rust-resistant solid brass buckle lets you fasten and adjust the strap with ease.
• Diagonal Wear: Worn across the chest, it spreads the weight of the weapon evenly over the shoulder and torso for freedom of movement.

Versatile Uses

Sling on this leather baldric and feel the swagger of a captain the moment you step out. Suitable for:

• Pirate costumes and themed parties
• LARP events
• Renaissance fairs

Care Instructions

Note: Each piece is handcrafted, so variations in leather tone, grain and stitching are normal. These natural differences make every baldric unique.
