Quote:What you can do is harvest all belt plates from the one you have, buy some leather and make a proper belt yourself.
Oh, the leather is all right (well, sometimes at least!), it's the plates that are the problem. But you do NOT want to try taking all the plates off just to save the leather!
Quote:By the way it is called a Cingulum Militare, not a Balteus, that is a 4th century belt.
Huh, I thought it was the other way around? Typically "balteus" for the first century, and "cingulum" later. Though I doubt that was carved in stone!
