Flak Maniak Posted April 5, 2021 Posted April 5, 2021 As the title says. I don't have any of this part on hand. It looks like it's designed to fit with the standard old-timey pirate cutlass. Can it also fit with standard katanas, or other notable swords? Quote
Jack Sassy Posted April 5, 2021 Posted April 5, 2021 It works also with a katana, but looks a bit off. Other swords simply do not fit (as far as I know), it was designed for cutlass wielding and looks best that way, though that doesn't forbid you to experiment with it and use for other swords. Quote
AmperZand Posted April 6, 2021 Posted April 6, 2021 The sword of Gryffindor fits, but not well. You can get the blade in but only as far as the ricasso, not all the way to the guard. So the hilt protrudes further than it should which looks funny. Quote
hewkii9 Posted April 6, 2021 Posted April 6, 2021 It works with regular Castle shortswords as well. Quote
AmperZand Posted April 6, 2021 Posted April 6, 2021 The Lord of the Rings/Hobbit short sword (Sting) fits quite well. The gladius also works but doesn’t rest quite so snuggly. Quote
Lyichir Posted April 7, 2021 Posted April 7, 2021 If the regular katana fits as people say above, then I would expect these two blade pieces (from the Ninjago weapon multi-pack used in various sets in recent years) to work as well. Possibly more effectively than the standard katana, given its length. Don't necessarily take my word for it, though—I sadly don't have any of the scabbard/hilt piece to test with, so can't really guarantee your results. Quote
CallMeCarbiz Posted April 8, 2021 Posted April 8, 2021 The Brick Blogger created a post about this in the past: Guide to LEGO-scabbard compatible swords There have been a few swords that have come out since then. Here are few that they didn't include Short Sword Old Long Sword New Long Sword Quote
Flak Maniak Posted April 9, 2021 Author Posted April 9, 2021 Wait, the oldish longsword (second photo in your post) fits? I wouldn't have guessed! I keep wishing that designed-for-katana holders would fit that sword blade, and they keep not fitting it! Well, I guess I'm off to BrickLink to get some of that scabbard, then. Quote
CallMeCarbiz Posted April 10, 2021 Posted April 10, 2021 Yeah the older and newer long swords fit great. I too wish they could fit in the “designed-for-katana” scabbards but they don’t. Interestingly the Sword of Gryffindor does fit. Quote
Flak Maniak Posted April 12, 2021 Author Posted April 12, 2021 Huh; I didn't think I wanted any Swords of Gryffindor, but, now I'm off to check if they're on B&P... Quote
