<P>I made brass fittings for my scabbard and they are happy with a pressure (tight) fit. Though note that I'm not hanging the scabbard by the lock (throat)...<BR><BR>On manręden, </P></DIV>

<DIV></DIV>&gt;The fittings on the sword found in Balladoole on the Isle of Man 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;were riveted on. Although there did not appear to be a chape or 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;mouth, just strap connectors.

<DIV></DIV>&gt;&gt;Here's a question that I have been thinking, but haven't had time 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;&gt;to 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;&gt;research... How are fittings (chape and mouth mount) attached to 
<DIV></DIV>&gt;&gt;scabbards?
