I was also under the impression that the pila were strapped to the furca.
As was already mentioned maybe it was only the spare(s).
If anyone has a copy of Junkelmann's "Legions of Augustus" handy I noticed they also carried their pila much higher than I've normally done.
Not sure about the grip, though. Maybe someone can post a pic from that
or at least check for comparison.
