Hey, Mark Moore... I have one of these, and it's a good product. the leather is high quality and the baldric is cut so that it hangs properly from the shoulder.
Just one word of warning... the frog is NOT sent with holes punched in it in order to thread the leather laces through. I don't own any leather punch tools or awls, but an electric drill and a one-eighth diameter drill bit works just fine.

In my experiences, MRL rivets are worthless. I bought a rapier hanger from them once and it didn't last until I tried it on. Fell apart at the rivets. Piece of........ .......Sorry....I get pissed every time I think about it. Had to reassemble it myself with REAL AMERICAN rivets.............McM

I'm waiting for another early Norman mace...they are perfect for escrima training /use.
Or a Steampunk ray gun. They are great for keeping the yard gnomes at bay!!
