Well done on committing to a costume change while starting off. It definitely made me start paying attention that you look like the folks I want to emulate at my LARP. I also never thought of wear to place it on my belt. Very nice video, sharing to my page. Thank you for making this
Another great video Chuck! I make frogs already and I still learned a bit from this. I love the touch of the peace tie too! Your energy is great and the video made me smile. Thanks again!
Wow. I found this interesting. I am relatively new to leather crafting and come to this channel to learn - wallets, bags and such. I’m not at all into any of this, BUT the video was still interesting and enjoyable to watch. Thanks Chuck.
Ah the first couple frogs I bought had such a big angle that I hit everyone, basically got into leather working so I could make one that had a much smaller angle 😅 love that you mentioned that
You keep knocking the videos out of the park Chuck! This was very interesting and informative. Love the costume. If you haven't already done a video on sharpening edgers, I'd appreciate seeing one.
I am working on a pirate costume with a baldric and a separate waist belt. i carry my dagger across the back of my waist belt that is two widths, outside is 3" and ends short of the 1 1/2" belt. the scabbard is a simple wrap with lace than I laced the scabbard to the 3" belt placing the holes 1/2 under the thinner belt. added the peace tie to secure it. the baldric i bought but unhappy with the bright modern look of it and the way the sword frog was designed, so am disassembling it and reworking it. I am thinking of using your design for the sword frog but without the belt loops. will attach to the baldric at a much less severe angle it currently has. my costume is not going to an elaborate captain's outfit, mine will be more of an actual period piece and less hollywood. lol i learn quite a bit from your videos and love that you are a ren fairer
Absolutely love how you explain everything at a level a relatively new leather craftsman can understand. Thank you 🙏🏼 Btw: was the small sign on the table leg an “Easter egg” for the viewers?
Oh ya we need to make a pair of boots like your wearing .that would make a great video. Good video Chuck. From Glenn CATT Massachusetts. Markasons video.
Very good tut.👍 I'm in the process of making the sword one. Printed to 100% cut out card stock, then cut the leather and the holes but the holes don't match up. In fact they're way off. Should have checked the holes on paper before punching the leather. Now I will punch new holes and the cinch will cover up all the holes. Thought you should know.
@@WeaverLeatherSupply I absolutely did and on my prints the frog rivet holes center to to center are 3.35cm apart on the cinch they're 4.2cm. Are they not supposed to be equal distance?
Very nice video and first rate craftsmanship. Got a glimpse of the sword scabbard, I like it. I guess it's built just like the dagger...I watched that video. So with the frogs, does one size for dagger fit most daggers? Does the pattern contain different measurements for different size scabbards/daggers? Be really nice is this was a pre-cut kit one could order. Thanks.
Hi Dean, Most daggers are different sized so it's hard to create a one size fits all kit. If you follow these instructions though, you can adjust the measurements to fit whatever you need.
This is a fantastic tutorial, however, the digital pattern is incorrect. The holes to rivet the cinch onto the frog backs do not match up. I thankful caught the error before I punched into any leather, but it was really disappointing that I had to make so much modification on what I thought would be a very quick project.
Hey, I love you videos and they were a big part of what inspired me to get into leather working, and I was just curious if there is are any differences in making the other style of dagger frog shown? I think I like the style of the one with two straps as opposed to the full frog, and I’m just curious if the measurements would be vastly different, and also, would that style work for a sword as well? Anyway, thanks for all the great videos!
Most medieval swords did not utilize a frog. The scabbard had belts attached to it and the main sword belt that was separate from your primary belt that held your cote in place.
Was giving the pattern a test and found the holes on the sword frog and stench dont align. Maybe it was me download, but i thought i printed both at 100%. Anyone else have that issue?
Another fantastic video, Sir. One question: When you mentioned the suede, is that on the outside of the scabbard/sheath to provide friction against the frog, or the inside of the scabbard/sheath to provide friction against the blade?
Peace tying is an odd concept, from an Australian perspective. We wear all manner of weaponry at medieval events over here and no one bats an eyelid nor tries to hit anyone else, at least outside of the tourney field.
I wish I had found you sooner. The dagger scabbard making video blew my mind - I previously only knew how to make them with welts.
That belt is amazing!
"Upside down horn is a sign of distress," was a nice touch. No need to explain that one 😆
Is that a ren faire thing? I've never heard that one before
@@jkewgie8348 Means your out of beer (no beer left in the drinking horn if it is upside down).
this is simply amazing and detailed tutorial! and the angle tip - just what i needed!
thank you so much 💗⚔

So chuck, about those back hangers. I need that video. I can find a pattern I like. would love to see you make a back hanger.

Excellent! Now you need to show how to make a baldric to complete the swashbuckler.

Awesome stuff, Weaver staff! Thank You, Chuck! I sooo wish you would deliver abroad...
Not into period but I watch all of your videos, never know when you will pick up an idea for tooling or stamping pattern. Thanks Chuck

I see a kitty .show the kitty what's his name lans a lot .
Noice! Thanks for sharing this pattern Chuck cant wait to get started! LOVE the period stuff!
So glad to hear, have fun with it!

Hi Erik,
We will check on this, thank you for letting us know.
Hi Erik,
We checked on this and it seems to be matching on our end. You'll want to make sure you print "actual size".

Peace from Malaysia ☺️
Those Look Great. I guess I need to make a set of those now too..... LOL How about a video on that Horn Hanger! Huzzah!!!

This is a really good tutorial and I will using it on LARP swords.
Thank you! :)
While it is facinating to watch, I often wonder if I am getting a set of 'Ginzu Knives' at the end.

Maybe a video on that cool belt your wearing.
Awesome man awesome
Looks great! Have you ever made a leather dagger sheath that was integral to the frog or are they always separate parts?
Was giving the pattern a test and found the holes on the sword frog and stench dont align. Maybe it was me download, but i thought i printed both at 100%. Anyone else have that issue?

Damn. Good eye!
Great video! Thank you! Love the lace-up look. Though I have a question. Where do you get your swords from?
Hi Jackson,
I get a lot of them from Museum Replicas, LTD in Conyers, GA.
@@WeaverLeatherSupply Cool! Thanks!
im not into the renfair stuff, so i didnt know, but.. "upside down horn, sign of distress" i did not know and found very interesting.
Sign of a drinking problem, as you spilled your mead. 😉

Hi Chuck! You dont need a sharp edger when you look sharp in your costume!
