Armory ReplicasKatana Bokken Shinai Foam Sword Nylon Carrying Case

Only thing I didn't like about this is that it arrive with a big crease in it where it was folded for shipping. I was afraid that would ruin it and make it look bad if nothing else. Turned out not to be an issue. This is a must have if you have a wooden, plastic, etc. training blade without a sheath. Perfect for Cosplay too. Fits well, can be swapped right or left side of back, I think it could work fine worn at belt level too but I haven't actually tried that. Worth buying. I will probably buy another and see if it will allow me to carry both of my katanas on my back. Really pleased with this purchase.

Straps lenght is way too short! Extended them as loose as I could but still short. Quality of the sheath is alright: sturdy as well as perfectly sized.Update: straps do adjust to preferred size, I just didn't find a way to do so at first. Fits as expected, good thing 2 came with it because the 1st one is as good as done.

I recently dressed up as a ninja for a family night event at my church. I own a couple of Cold Steel bokken (plastic training swords), and decided they would make a great costume addition to wear around children of various ages. All I needed was a way to strap the swords to my back, Leonardo-style. One person commented that they managed to attach two of these together crossed, and I was in for two.They arrived in mint condition, with not one but two straps which can be removed easily by little plastic clips. They can also be removed by ripping the clip off the sheathe, which I did almost immediately by accident as I had a sheathe slung over my shoulder and I was trying to adjust the length of the strap. Oops. Good thing I only really needed one strap per sheath. The construction appears to be a roomy plastic casing, wrapped in a nylon-or-other-plastic-cloth, with the plastic clips attached to more of the cloth which appears to be sewn on. It looks more sturdy than it proved to be, although I think the weakness is just a matter of really thin cloth and the clips aren't attached to the plastic casing.My bokken fit perfectly, and although I didn't find a good method of attaching the sheaths together, I found that if I ran the straps through a belt loop in the back, I had a workable outfit that more or less survived a run through a makeshift obstacle course and some talking on stage. There was one part where I had to go through a space that would be too tight to get the swords through, and score one for those plastic clips on the strap. Unfortunately, I also managed to tear two more of the plastic clips almost completely off the scabbard.In the end, while not super sturdy against an average night of ninja-ing with an audience of small-to-medium children, these were mostly functional, they fit my plastic swords perfectly, and they looked nice. I've since reattached the clips with hot glue, but admittedly I don't yet know if this will hold as well or better than what it arrived with. Authentic ninjas and Deadpool stunt doubles should probably steer clear, as these will shred the first time you land a jump off a simple three story building. For those looking for a nice costume piece, I'd recommend this.

Before last year's Halloween, I had settled on the idea of a futuristic ninja-type costume. That being said, I knew I needed a sword sheath for a plastic laser sword that I had purchased. To my dismay, the design of this sword sheath was not favorable. Any sword that I slid inside it tends to hang in an awkward position on my back. Also, due to the fabric material, it can sometimes be difficult to pull the sword out of it or put it in. However, for the low cost, it may work for those on a budget.

I don't put any real swords inside of it. Foam swords mainly since they're lighter. Has a tight fit so I don't have to worry about the swords flying out. I also like the extra straps incase you need it. Haven't used it in a way that I need to sheathe anything in quickly but it feels sturdy enough to handle it

I orderded this for my Bokken kitanas, but it did not fit with my swords. I think that this would be best for traditional claymores and other western style swords, incl. replicas and plastic swords for cosplay. When I got mine, the middle rivet which holds the two sheaths together and allows for adjustment/rotation, was dented in/damaged, which I wasn't sure if this would result in a future structural failure during useage. I emailed the shop to let them know it didn't fit my swords and that I wanted to return it and that the central rivet is damaged, so that they knew that, They were very quick with their response and very courteous. I highly recommend this seller for sword related items and that this would be great for cosplaying Deadpool (which i also do) and that it would be really good for plastic and light thin metal swords, but is not compatabale with bokken kitanas or practice kiatanas which are greater in diameter and don't fit well

Straps to small... Tight feel. I'm 5'9" 260lb.

Even though the rest of the reviews say that it works 6+ we decided to get it for our 4 year old at Christmas time. It works really well for two wooden swords (about 1 inch in thickness), but my boy just isn't big enough for it yet. Now that he is wearing size 5 we can get the belted portion to go through his belt loops to provide enough stabilization for the swords to come out of the scabbard but it's just too much hassle at his age, attention span, and dexterity level, getting them back in is hard. I really recommend size 6+, but it probably looks better on someone size 8+. My husband did try it out and after a bit of adjustment was able to get it on easily enough. It's a fun costume piece and I imagine we will have it around for a long time to come.
