Hi, I noticed in previous discussions about swords and scabbard slides that different threads were used to attach slide to scabbard. In the book even in 1931 when the author lived among these people that when a horse died they used his mane, tail and leg tendons for extra strong threads. He also described the sagaris which the locals still used in 1931. His theory was it had like a hammer head opposite the sharp end for hammering tent pegs etc.
