UPDATE: Full sequel video where I answer your questions: th-cam.com/video/-8YAT4KDSNs/w-d-xo.html
To answer a common question, yep, this scabbard can work with a backpack to account for the many adventurers wearing them, simply attach the scabbard to the same side of the backpack as your main hand with the scabbard's affixed belt and draw it from over your shoulder as normal. Skallagrim shows where you would want to attache the sword to a backpack in this video but he needs to drop the pack to draw it. If you used my scabbard design you could draw the sword without needing to take off the backpack. th-cam.com/video/mNZL2yw0yAo/w-d-xo.html&t
Yeah, but he had a point. It's not exactly ideal to fight while wearing a backpack. Still, you can at least draw the sword with this scabbard if necessary, say if someone is acting suspicious, then drop the bag if you are planning on fighting. Now for the next question: How would you carry a flat roundshield on your back?
shadiversity do a patent on it
That's an awesome idea with this custom design, congrats!
However, since you made it practical (with practice) to draw the sword with one hand, I wonder if you can also test another unusual thing from movies and games: Two short swords on the back! (and maybe draw them at the same time with each hand)
Using a similar design couldn't you just have it on your left side and un-sheath + strike in a single motion?
If you are at a place where you have to turn in your sword, you would hand in the scabbard.
It feels like he's a blacksmith trying to sell a knight on the idea of a Back Sheath.

I absolutely love this. im a game artist and I have always wanted to design a functional back scabbard for some game characters. I can already imagine ornate designs for a scabbard like this.
That sounds really exciting. Wish you good luck with your projects!
I hope to play a game you will inevitably make one day. Keep trying man!

nice, what game are you working at?
@@Leothelion357 Why the hell would you say this?
I was never recommended this video by TH-cam. I've been subscribed for about a year and it took shad pointing out how TH-cam is killing his channel for me to finally watch this. What a shame. This is a great video.
Yeah, I watched it years ago, but that video reminded me of it and I went back for a rewatch. It really is a great video.
I noticed that as the video progressed, Shad got better and better at sheathing the sword on his back. The lad was leveling up in front of my very eyes like a real fantasy adventurer.

We all know the sword magically attaches to your body
Even in the games that do show it, the animation is so quick you don’t see that the sword just melts through the scabbard lol
@@mr.potato2223 it's exactly like that and weapons with sheath the sword just phases through it
Lmao
I've often thought the magnet thing in FF7 was moderately plausible. Perhaps a really strong electromagnet that could be disengaged when you need to draw the sword.
*Looks at Dante from every dmc game*
What a fantastic examination of this idea. I love the amount of thought put into this, and I also love the engineering to make a practical back scabbard. One thing I would argue here is that drawing the sword in a timely manner is very important, but putting it back easily is much less important. What is the result of not getting your sword out in time? Well, the other guy probably chops you up or sticks you full of holes. But what happens if you cant put it away easily? Well, you maybe look kinda silly trying to get it back in there, or maybe you even need to ask someone for help. If you wear full armor, though, you probably already have a squire, or some other assistance, to don and doff your armor. Putting on full plate by yourself is much less practical than sheathing a sword, no matter where you keep the sheath/scabbard. Failing to draw in time is lethal, but failing to put it away in time is generally not.
Another advantage to this design that you forgot to mention. The ART. An ornate scabbard only has so much room for pretty details, or you need to be REALLY close to see it. If a scabbard was a CD cover, this thing is a 12-inch vinyl sleeve. You've got enough room to paint a full Coat of Arms that could be recognizable from across the room. It's not as much canvas space as a shield, but as far as swords are concerned, this is king.
I imagine sitting at home and then i look out the window and see Shad in gambeson with a sword on his back running by.

To think i would die such honorless way,god strike me with a pommel.
Imagine watching a big ole swordsman being shot down in a modern duel. Swords are outdated. Try and be a modern knight using modern tools and keeping the same chivalry. These guys are pretending.. on every level if you ask me
Your demonstration of the advantage of wearing a sword on your back for running, crawling, and climbing immediately reminded me that Ninja are traditionally depicted wearing their sword on their back. And setting aside all the popular folklore about Ninjas, to the extent we can say Ninjas actually existed, what they're best known for (aside from being sneaky and dishonorable) are acrobatic feats.
I always had this type of idea for a back sheath. Actually seeing something in real life working is really gratifying
I actually designed a similar scabbard type several years ago, I don't actually own a sword so i never built it.
I think a lot of us can agree that "It looks cooler" is enough of a reason to be convinced that it is good to carry a sword on your back.
Which is also a good historical reason. People loving to pose and show off has been a constant so someone doing this to looks cool would be entirely justified.
Bruh, imagine going on a mission looking coll and badass as hell and then you encounter enemy, try to find your sword on your back and regret putting it here just to look cool as bunch of arrows penetrate your neck and you fucking die.
@@theorixlol2018 Having a sword or even an empty scabbard on your hip probably makes it harder to, let’s say, run away if you’re faced with a bunch of enemies, tho. It impairs movement. Both have their downsides.
@@dinaqueiroz790 for what reason would you want to run away when you have a sword and you can use it
@@theorixlol2018 presumably because you can’t handle this many foes, lol, no one’s invincible, there are always occasions when it’s wiser to back off
I can agree that carrying on your hip is better for drawing in combat, but carrying on your back is better for transport, overall movement and stealth (if you have to crawl through somewhere it doesn’t make noise, also you can cover it with a cloak)
I don’t know how I got here but I love this guy’s enthusiasm.

He's jazza's brother. Now it probably makes sense
one other advantage you didnt mention is on horseback. i feel like if you had a really big blade on your hip you could accidently clip the horses ear cus you have to cross your hand over your body. also with this your arm stays in the same position its being wielded so its reduces draw time even further which in battle could make all the difference.
Horses had sheaths on them to easily pull swords from during combat ive seen it.
@@SQL-pen i didnt know horses could wield sword
What if i happen to be riding a dragon? 🤔
@@Pilsnor give the dragon a sword too
bro is from the 7th century 💀
When it comes to sheathing your sword, speed shouldn't be a concern. In fact, you're supposed to sheathe slowly. At least in kendo. The idea is an enemy may spring out as you're sheathing, so if you stay alert while slowly sheathing, you can respond quickly in case an enemy tries to surprise you.
You must have been lost, stupid. Kendo is not historical European martial arts.
i love how this video will literally never, ever be useful to me in any way, shape or form and i _still_ *instantly clicked haha*
I'm so glad I'm not the only one tbh LOL
I find it usefully for D&D. If someone asks me why I've got my sword on my back I can say
"well it's quiet comfy and easier to travel with it like this. have you ever ran or claimed up a mountain with a sword at your side, it's not pleasant."

Its helpful for me cuz I'm a writer that does a lot of action ;-;

"In other news, local man was spotted running really fast while wearing a gambeson and carrying a longsword on his back; he looked particularly comfortable"
"We now go live to our on the ground reporter for an eyewitness account. Stacey?"
"Thanks, Tom. I'm here with Bewilda who lives in the area. Ma'am, you said you know what's going on?"
"Oh, yes, that's just Shad. He does this kind of thing all the time."
I was laughing about that too, but I am sure Shad's neighbors are used to him by now :)
Pfft, as if the plebs of society would even know what a gambeson is. They'd probably call it a "winter coat" or something.
@@milesmatheson1142 But it does make a wonderful winter coat so it wouldn't be wrong.
...and well protected from sword attacks. =)
I'm a mangaka (manga author and artist), and my main character has a claymore-sized longsword he wears on his back. I've been designing various sheaths/scabbards to make it easier to draw the weapon, and thought about the half-sheath Geralt wears in the Netflix series of The Witcher. I like how the sheath is attached to the belt, and has a leather "box" that braces and gives the right kind of space between the sheat and the lower back/waist. However, it's somewhat of an impractical design for a meatier, longer sword. I'm impressed with the design you've created, and it definitely makes it easier to draw and resheath. I may actually base my design loosely on your concept, especially the open side draw aspect. VERY nice.
I'm interested bro nice, what manga have u worked on?
Don't forget to cite Shad since he's the one who first came up with this design.
Idk if this has been mentioned before in comments or in a video, but another reason a back scabbard would be useful. If ur on horseback and in combat, it'll be easier to keep hold of the reigns with one hand and unsheathe and resheathe the sword with the other without letting go of the reigns
🤦🏻♂️. Dumbass. They don't use "swords". They will use long handle ones or spears.
Excellent point!
youd use a sheath on your saddle
This has even evolved through diff weapons, since rifle holsters for saddles were a thing too(or maybe are still a thing somewhere in the us)
I love how enthusiastic he is about his scabbard working
Its is a pretty cool scabbard.
He was getting alittle out of breath
It's an amazing feeling for something that works.

That's what she said....
I mean he did invent a revolutionary scabbard design so he must be pretty proud.
My best friend had a medieval themed wedding. The groom wore a 5 ft sword on his back that they used to cut the cake.
thats awesome
Did they use trumpets like they did to greet the king and things like that?
@@mhplayer Nope, but the ringbearer was dressed as Frodo!
What a medieval chad
I now know what I want for my wedding.
I often think about how realistic things like this actually were and I'm grateful to people like you for putting videos together explaining the practicality. It's super interesting to see. I think definitely for the fantasy character this is the most practical. However, realistically I think people who would be carrying a sword around either on their hip or back would be foot soldiers and probably would only be doing it for one battle at a time rather than carrying them around adventuring. So it probably wouldn't matter all that much how they wore it. Also, if you've seen the Witcher series and how they handle it, you might be kind of weirded out like I was at first but I think that's actually the most practical way to carry them around. Simply having a case that you can stow on your horse and bring out when needed.
Ingenious scabbard idea and also a gorgeous blade.
why is no one talking about how impressive it is that this guy just came up with a whole-ass new scabbard design that makes this work as well as it does
because its ineffective and we don't carry swords around enough to care
If I'm being honest? He's just the one who built it. As stated, it's not a new idea, two seperate cultures went with it that he noted, and other TH-camrs have come up with other designs.
This is what I was thinking the first time someone brought up back swords as a question to me. Probably 3 or 4 years ago, actually, might even have been Shad that first brought it up to my ears. Shad's design is solid and functional, he addressed all the same concerns I did *and* thought up an oiled sheath, so I give him full credit, but he's a sword guy and he also figured out a sword guy problem. I wasn't interested enough to build a mock-up, he makes his living doing this. I'm more motivated to do armor design, I just suck at that
His design works, though I'd rather have the open variety with the edges covered

More pouches ➡️more space for spare pommels. The tactical advantage is obvious.
More pommels = more enemies ended rightly.
Which means when you run out of pommels, you run out of the potential of more rightly ended enemies.
Ah, but if you're an adventurer, by the time that happens, you're probably nearing the end of your current adventure and don't have many enemies left to end rightly, and that space you've opened up from all that earlier ending rightly is mighty useful for all those magic potions, artifacts and treasures you find laying around conveniently for you to plunder, once all enemies are ended rightly. Any remaining stragglers you can just end normally and be done with it so you can get back to town and squander that hard earned treasure on wenches, dice and ale.
I just wanna see some random historical find etc, where some dude actually had a batman type belt just full of pommels lol
@@psychofury6485 what about a bat pommel
You could always recover the pommels. Nothing in the manual says you have to keep the pommel by your enemy to remind him of how rightly he was ended. The dent in his helmet is proof enough.
As a nerd myself, there's something really fun about watching a nerd geek out about something they love. Thanks for bringing a bit more awesome into the world!
JollyGreenWizard Absolutely!
I don't even have to be interested in the subject, if someone is pouring their soul out on a subject I am invested.
That scabbard is actually genius and amazing!! just seeing it smoothly slide out is so satisfying
I actually thought of a design similar to that a while back for one of my characters and I’m really glad that it’s functional.

Now all we need so an effective "Shield on back" design, and our adventurers are set.
SonOfMyths73 I actually wear my shield on my back and can have it in hand in less than a second. Mostly it takes good strap placement and repition to get it right. I
I didn't know there was a controversy over having a shield on your back.😕
I mean they're awkward, sometimes heavy, and you don't need them for huge swaths of time... I think it would be smart to be able to put it away! (obvious bucklers are exempt from this) Plus, unlike the sword debate, no one would try to sneak up and steal your shield!
Pretty sure the Greeks and maybe Romans carried shields on their backs on the march (or their servants did), though the Romans iirc had them in leather cases.
Centergrip round with a quick release system on the buckle of the strap. Reach back, grab, release.
Even better, with a wood or metal handle, a basic hook that you can just hang the shield on.
"Wow, my scabbard is making no noise as I crawl around sneakily!" he exclaims while sneaking.

That’s pretty smart I never would have thought of that and with some artistic work done on it it could look sick
I just like how honest he is , he covers all points disadvantages and advantages. You gotta respect that.
Also, it doesn't really matter if it takes a little longer to sheathe the sword. If you're sheathing it, the battle's over and you can relax and take your time a little. Being able to draw the sword quickly is really the critical part.
true true
sheathing it quickly would only be important in situations of politics. like if you're the kings guard. when he gives the order for you to sheath or "rest" your arms (sword) you are unironically expected to be able to sheath your blade almost as fast as you drew it initially. Or when you have to quickly mount your steed because something's gone wrong and a retreat has been sounded. outside of those you don't need to sheath it quickly at all.
That is a great sccabard! Geniusly done!
Looks cool. Awesome job

im not sure why this video was recommended to me, but I really enjoyed and might be back around for more!
I’m curious if a design like this could double as a light weight shield in some way. There may be some impracticality especially when it comes to balance but it’d be a cool idea.

"I telling you man, that guy is crazy, the other day i just saw him running down the street with a sword on his back".
“You mean on his side, right?” “Nah I ment it... on his back mate”
I was just about to type this very thing.
"And then here's the crazy thing mate, he actually drew it!"
911 Operator: "Was he black or white?"
You: "White."
911: "No need to worry then - just some nerd then."
You: "Nerds don't run ..."
911: "Good point - SWAT is on the way!"
"How big was it? Was it a sword or more of a heap of raw iron."
Wow! Love the enthusiasm! Keep it going! :)
Very nice design, use, history, and explanations!
You are a certified intellectual madlad my mate

BUILD THOSE MACHICOLATIONS!
Conservative memes merging with shads medieval memes?
..THIS IS A GLORIOUS DAY!
@Soviet who Cuts Yeah horrible for soros.
Cool! You have perfected it!
Respect to Metatron!! And this guy! You figured out the correct sheath!!
Shad's such a dorky dad, no shame, just sprinting down a street in a gambeson with a sword on his back, gotta love him.
Sprinting to punish the soon to be dead AF parents of some bullies, medieval style, with fantasy elements so the blade causes you to set on fire or get electrocuted then you fly through a window into the windscreen of a moving car, and watch out for the driver of this car because somekind of energy comes out his fingers that allows him to slice people up just by waving his hands around infront of a guy. Don't worry though, he was impressed by the power of the sword, so now he's joined the party and its on to the next area where the soon to be dead AF first boss lives, feasting on the blood of the forsaken ones.
It's great how he wears medieval armor every time he goes outside.
@T C
Ah, makes sense.
The sacred texts!
He’s getting ready for Brigands who wanna nick his sack of quid!
His neighbors are just waiting for him to lower his guard so they can ride in, defeat him in battle, and lay claim to his 4 bedroom ranch house, or at the very least pillage his pantry.
Just had a debate about this, thank you for proving me RIGHT
man, another cool video recommended to me that was made on my birthday

Imagine seeing a bearded mad-man wind sprinting through the street with a sword on his back.
I already love this channel

Yeah. They text, right?
@@thelordofthememes8702 what if they are writing each other by messenger pigeon.
@@joshuacritzer763 ok. That explains...
@@thelordofthememes8702 Before there phones and texting.there were other ways of getting the word out like ether a messenger on horse back to get news out there or a messenger bird usually a messenger pigeon but sometimes different birds like a owl, falcon, different birds as long as their trained to deliver information or a simple message to to there and from back. So they could be using phones but the way the other comment worded its post i assumed it was ether the medieval times (the middle times) or some other time period like that one maybe Elizabethan times perhaps.they were also used in ww1 and i think ww2 for a brief time. Sorry I mean no disrespect.
Or if it is a fantasy, there are some magical ways, like megascope or water bending etc.
you revolutionized back drawing scabbards
