Help finding a nice baldric

[MacMillan of Rathdown]

The reason I asked about the proposed jacket, it that it would seem to me that you could just as easily wear a Sam Browne under your jacket as you could a baldric over your jacket, and a USMC Sam Browne would probably be easier to obtain.

Actually that's a pretty good idea. I'm definitely adding this option to the list, thank you.

Try Highland Brigade.com . They have a selection of different Scottish Regimental sword belts that should work very well with your sword. Good Luck.

If you are not totally sold on a Baldric you might try a dedicated sword belt like here: http://www.marlowwhite.com/cgi-bin/c...&search=action

Then you know that the scabbard will work with the belt. I could not find a Marine specific belt on there but I would suppose that it would be the same as either your sister service in the DoN or the other ground branch

The frog for the NCO Sword is sized to fit up to a 1-3/4" belt. Standard waist plate style kilt belts are usually 2-1/4" or larger. However, you could have a kilt belt made to fit the frog or even have a new frog made to fit a standard kilt belt.

Just search "Cross belt". Any pipe band supplier will have them.

Here's a pretty good baldric at a reasonably price. You could have it in a few days.

I could have it tomorrow since the place is about 2 miles from my house!
