Can you wear the the scabbard on your back?

The sword has the traditional wrapping (the proper term eludes me at the moment), which is wound through an extended portion of the scabbard that provides a secure tunnel to channel it through. As such, it could be tied in such a way that allows for it to be worn on your back, slung over one shoulder and under the opposing arm. However, with only one point on the scabbard being utilized to secure it in place like this, I imagine it would be very prone to swinging and shifting about with any sudden motions you make while wearing it. Gravity will also cause it to sink to the lowest possible point for supporting the weight, meaning the hilt will likely end up beneath your shoulder blades more often than it would be above them like you see in most movies or fiction. So while it's possible, it's not really all that well suited to the task, and would rest much better on a belt/waist-level placement. This is definitely a traditional Japanese style scabbard (housing one incredibly beautiful sword), not modern MOLLE military gear, so the technical answer is "Yes" while my advisory would be "No, not really". Hope that helps.

Sure, but the scabbard is gorgeous- befitting the blade- with a high gloss finish. If you wore it on your back it would reflect light. Of course if you are a ninja you know the technique to draw the weapon from that position.

Indeed you can. That's what the string it comes with is used for, as well as other uses.

It may be too long to draw it like that, but you can wear it any way you want. It's a great purchase though. I missed my target and cut the leg of the step ladder I had it set on. It didn't even put a mark on the blade.

No. And it looks like the scabbards have beeen discontinued, because they're really hard to come by.

Yes, it does come with a sheath/scabbard, but it is wrapped in a very cheap leather. If you plan on wearing this often, you will wear it out quickly. I would imagine that you could attach it to a belt, but not without purchasing something extra to attach or hang on your belt.Quite honestly, I ended up returning this product due to the cheap feel of the leather scabbard and leather handle on the dagger itself.

With a sword holster yes but u wont be able to insheath it. My arms are to short to do so.

I don't see why it wouldn't work. The loop area where the scabbard is inserted is adjustable with 2 leather thongs.

The one I was sent came with a scabbard. I'm a pretty big guy and I can put it on my back.

It says you can flip the clip around for small of the back carry but I haven't tried this as I have heard horror stories about people suffering pretty bad lower back injuries by being knocked down or falling on their weapon with it in the small of their back. I wear mine front right waist band and it works perfectly with my S&W; Airweight.

No, it does not, and that's the only issue. It does have straps to allow you to attach it to your back, but they are not strong enough to hold in your hand. This shield DOES have straps to wear it on your back, it DOES NOT have straps strong enough to hold it outright.

No. At first look it might but leather will give over time and the smaller weapon will not stay in place with movement. You risk dropping the weapon.

This can be worn at the small of the back. The loop adjusts to carry anywhere from cross-draw to small of back. I would advise against carrying at the small of the back due to the potential of spinal injury should you fall, or are tackled, and land on your pistol. I believe I remember the model for the Ruger SR9c also made to fit the Shield.

Yes it's a black sheath, and if you have it strapped across your back it might be a little hard to take it out with one hand. Also, there's this rubber guard for the tip, but it got stuck at the end of my sheath so watch out for that. The sheath itself is made of a synthetic type material; it isn't hard like a scabbard. It's still really fun though, so I hope that answered your question

Yes you can wear it under your normal clothes. You might look like you gained a few lbs but if you wear a loose fitting dark shirt it will help. Some of the other Mueller back supports are better from an appearance basis.

Yes, it is a back sheath, and unless properly tightened, as you pull up the sword, the sheath will come with it.

The string u see on the scabbard could be used to lash it to a belt it has a hard plastic loop on the scabbard but not big enough to be used as an actual belt loop

Possibly. The straps are adjustable, similar to a leather watch band. 1-1/4" would be on the low end of the adjustment capability. My Katana scabbard is 1-5/8" x 7/8" and there is one hole of tightening adjustment left.

Hello, Yes if you are crafty with leather and steel, you can wear it as the romans did. The chain is far too flimsy to hope to use it as is, however, when you remove the chain it becomes much easier to attach. Take a look at maille online, create a few ring segments attached where the chain was. I would suggest you create the butted maile sections onto a leather strap( if you attempt regular chain mail pieces your gonna have a bad time). Take a look online on what kind of strap you would like. It is quite possible where the metal on the scarab is pretty strong. Hope this helps!

Yes. Its basically the same material as a cloth bandage with elastic and Velcro to hold it into place. The back has metal back braces
