And at the end of the 14th century came a new fashion for wearing a sword. Now the weapon vertically hung on the left side, crepes to the belt with a pair of small straps. In the fifteenth century, the belt consisted of a few straps – a few of them were fastened near the mouth of the scabbard, and the other hung almost in the middle.
