Hello!
I'm putting together a post-Roman British kit for SCA use and I was wondering about rigging the spatha. I expect to hang it from a baldric with the spatha at the right hip, but I was wondering: do these baldrics properly use an adjustment buckle? I could arge either side: a) it doesn't really need adjustment and; b) a buckle is a bit more bling.
So which is right? If I should be using a buckle, about what sort (preferably with a link to a picture or a place where I can order one) would be right?
Thanks in advance!
