Well, I am the proud recipient of a new pirate sword belt (or baldric) - and I could not be happier or prouder. This is truly a fine work of both artistry and craftsmanship...
So I thought I would post some clean sunlit, hi-res pics for you so that you could fully grasp the size and scale of this work of art.
The belt was made by fellow pirate and RPF member "Chaplin"
Hi Res of front: http://mojoturbocostumes.wikispaces...c_hires0.JPG/143342339/Jat_Baldric_hires0.JPG
First off, it feels heavy like real leather, smells like real leather and hangs and wears like real leather because it is real leather!!! Only the front facing is the pleather design and that is a very thin cover (88% of this item is leather). The rest of this bad boy is dyed, beaten distressed leather. When I opened this from the box - I could smell the leather and when I put it on, I could feel the weight of this on my shoulder.
I also had Chaplin make this "special order" just for me (first time he tried it) I have my conchos punched in two "settings" I have holes punched for "deluxe" tight for the real sword and "relaxed fit" for the plastic sword - depending on if I am in normal or stunt mode.

If any of you have other questions about the outfit I am wearing, I can answer those questions as well - and this is much better light than my last photo shoot and I left my colors the normal colors they are.
Hi Res of the frog: http://mojoturbocostumes.wikispaces..._hires2.JPG/143342321/Jat__Baldric_hires2.JPG
The frog holds my sword nice and tight, no wiggle and lays perfectly against my side. I even tried a few moves like running and leaning and a quick sword fight with my son and had no "movements" to speak of.
Yes, that is a Sith Camaro (Toby) buckle which I contacted and purchased on the side and had it shipped to Chaplin so he had something to work with. (and look at Chaplin's work on the leather edging!!!!)
These are also Sith Camaro conchos - and I must say, I could not be happier. I am excited about Toby's product and am very pleased with it.
This was my first prop purchase that wasn't on ebay and I gotta give it a fives star experience.
Worth the money
Was made easily in a few weeks
Great communication
Honest
Trustworthy
Friendly
Thanks Chaplin!
