How To.. wear the Pugio and Gladius (belts, fasteners)
#31
We've had some success at experimenting with using all 4 rings for different circumstances

Use all 4 rings for marching, weapons hang vertically

For combat, loosen or remove thongs on lower rings to allow gladius to swing forward and horizontal for a quick draw.

For combat, set pugio at a slight angle, top fwd, to facilitate cross body draw. BTW, learned the benefits of that in SCA combat.
