How To.. wear the Pugio and Gladius (belts, fasteners)

[Tarbicus]

Well if we go by the Adamklissi monument, then the top of the scabbard is depicted at armpit level, and no baldric. How do you do that one I wonder?

Let's just say the sense of proprtion by the sculptor ain't Michelangelo's.

And it is grave stele that depict the sword right in front of the leg Jim, so no need to get uptight.

No there aren't; not a single one I can find. Here's the full length ensemble from the RAT Imagebase to demonstrate:
