After many weeks of research and thought I made this baldric.
The shoulder strap is is made in 3 sections. The middle section is a 5 strand plait for grip the other 2 are 1 inch wide.
Buckles allow for adjustment depending on what I'm wearing.
The intention is to modify it into a multi function item.
It is designed to carry 2 items in a secure fashion using Sam Browne Studs with a 10mm head.
I intend to make a pouch which will hang off the shoulder strap at the bottom across the machete and hatchet using the same studs.(work in progress)
I also want to mount a knife on the front strap which will be easily removable and be belt or neck mounted.
Comments/ideas welcome
