Tritonworks Custom Scabbards - Scabbards

Features and Price list

Basic Maelstrom Line scabbard ($140)

Custom-fitted wooden core with wool lining more
This is a simple wooden core. It has been wool lined. It is suitable for use as a transport or storage scabbard or can be used as a foundation for a project by the do-it-yourselfer. By itself, an unembellished wool-lined core costs $80.
Leather outer in black or brown
Basic belt and buckle more
An example of a basic looped belt. You can select any standard buckle from the buckle list.

Optional

Complex suspension system (add $35) more
An example of a complex suspension system, accurate for the period of your sword. You can select any standard buckle from the buckle list.
Twisted wire elements (add $6) more
Wire decoration helps delineate your scabbard. Wire decoration was often used in period for decorative work on sword pommels and hilts. This is an example of the sort of work we typically do with twisted wire.
Pewter/sterling decorative elements (add $17 each) more
Add any standard metal decorative element from the decorative elements list. If you don't see something from the theme you want, ask us about it. We can find just about anything. Also includes wire wrapping to delineate the element.
Belt Mounts (See pricing details under "belt mounts" menu item above) more
Belt Mounts give your sword belt or baldric that extra flair that was so important to our ancestors. Belt mounts are easily found in existing contemporary art and effigial sources
Leather stamps (add $6 each) more
Add a celtic stamp to your leather outer.
Braided leatherwork (add $22) more
Add braided leather work as a decorative touch or as part of your suspension system. Here in one of my earlier efforts I used braided leather in the suspension system for a Del Tin Falchion.
Metal chape and locket (add $50) more
Add a chape and locket. Note that the chape alone will cost only $35 for a basic model, a little more if you want something fancy.
Triangle flap at scabbard mouth (add $25) more
Add a triangle flap at the top of your scabbard. This was often done in period.
Custom leather colors (add $25) more
Maelstrom Scabbards come in black or brown by default. Personalize your scabbard to any imaginable color.

Examples

A Maelstrom Line Scabbard for an Albion Brescia Spadona. This scabbard features a handstitched triangle top flap, a historically accurate suspension system and a period-correct buckle and belt strap.

A Maelstrom Line Scabbard for an Albion Talhoffer, although strictly speaking the suspension for this sword might be a tiny bit anachronistic it still turned out very nicely.

Scabbard made for Albion Duke. This scabbard features a celtic knot stamp, period accurate suspension and pewter buckle cast from a period original.

Maelstrom Line Scabbard for an Albion Knight sword. This scabbard features a handstitched triangle top flap, a historically accurate suspension system and a period-correct buckle and belt strap.

Maelstrom line scabbard for Del Tin Transitional Sword. This scabbard features a historical suspension system, as well as a metal chape. The matching handle, leather over cord, was also done by Tritonworks.

A detail of another scabbard I did for the same model sword, this one in black with a celtic knotwork accent.

Maelstrom Line matching MRL Sword and Dagger pair. Both scabbards feature hand stitched triangular top flaps, metal chapes and period accurate suspension systems.

Here is another of those MRL Oakeshott type XII warswords. This one is in brown with matching custom grip so that the customer can see the difference that a change in color can make as compared to the previous dark brown model.

Angus Trim Regalian with simple looped suspension and metal chape. This was a much more modestly priced scabbard then some of the others shown but still manages to be a very nice compliment to the sword.

Matched set of scabbards and frogs for Arms and Armor German Rapier and parrying dagger. Note matching dragonfly motif and twisted wire elements.

Albion Berserkr in simple brown scabbard matching handle wrap.

Scabbard with metal chape and locket and 4 buckle frog for Arms and Armor Bavarian rapier.
