Just a couple of pics of two of the late roman/migration era scabbards I've made this year.

Nice work...
Just wondering, is the three banded metal work on the lower scabbard the piece the belt passes through or is it decoration?

The former. I think you see a wider variety of slider/suspension designs in the late iron age/migration era Barbaricum then at any other time.
