Holy shit man. That last carry method finally puts the bollock dagger in context for me. Like I knew that the shape of the grip was probably a joke, but this is the first time I actually get it. That could also explain why the shape gradually became more abstract over time as Britain and the Continent became more overtly pious.

My first Renaissance Festival I had a bollock dagger, and even though I had heard they were often worn proudly at the very front, I felt a little awkward doing it so I had it at my side. The man at the gate said "You know you're wearing that dagger wrong." Well, if you insist! Wore it at my crotch the whole fair and didn't feel weird about it anymore!

[@Albruit]

My living history/hema group used to have a young lady that did harness combat with us that wore her bollack dagger in the front like you showed last. The looks she would get at events was fantastic!

[@gerardbryant4840]

Many, many moons ago, l was a security guard. I used to wear a 5-Dcell Maglite torch on my utility belt. I found that there was a spot on the belt where it would hang vertically, without any swinging about. Move it forward or backwards by a few millimeters, and it would swing and wave about all over the place. The torch would also hang straight down when you sat down.

[@robertmanson5922]

Its very refreshing to hear reenactors say things like "go your own path, base things on these designs and no one can tell you its wrong."

[@Houd_Vast]

I would imagine in certain instances, seconds matter, and knowing where your dagger rest at all times matter. I probably wouldn’t want it dangling freely around, but I guess that depends on the business I was doing. This video expanded my understanding, and was really enjoyable. I appreciate that these historical videos exist.

[@Komaru.89]

As a HEMA / swordfighting re-enactor, I have really come to love the bollock dagger worn in the front like that. It's easy to draw with either hand in either orientation, and stays out of my way otherwise. HIGHLY recommended for any dagger you need to get to quickly.

[@michaellooney7330]

The problem I've had with the dagger dangling from a cord on my belt has been the cording breaking without my realizing, and loosing the dagger as a result. The Italia one you demonstrated, going around and then tying in the front, I did myself without realizing it was a style simply because it felt more comfortable. But the one where it goes through the loops on the pouch I wish I had known before! My pouches all have these big loops, and I HATE how they move around as I move, and I constantly have to pull them back around. Having my dagger through the loops would help to tighten that, AND remove the dagger being in the way! The Left Hand Dagger, though, is my favorite! I really need to get one that fits that way!

[@peterdavies6660]

I’ve seen reenactors wearing them in the last way. Appeals to the reenactor sense of humour!

[@TheGearhead222]

Very interesting. Being an Eagle Scout and former Combat Sailor, I have always carried a legal length folding knife. The 8" or so decorative Marlin spiking paracord on the end not only makes it easier to deploy but politely advertises that I regularly carry a knife. Much more convenient than carrying a concealed pistol, although ALL knife fights are messy and septic affairs. A bullet is much more sterile by comparison. John in Texas

[@varjen018]

This reminds me of a time when i attended a "formal" dinner in armor. I went into a chamber to get dressed and upon leaving through the same door, i got stuck and kinda chipped the doorway a little. I was a LOT wider in gear, and moving in a crowd with a long blade at the side, sitting down was a little akward.

[@Glimmlampe1982]

Period glasses are rarely actually period. Mostly it's Renaissance fair fairy tales. I don't remember when wearing glasses everyday but just for reading actually became a thing, but it was very late. That's why reenactors wear obvious modern glasses (of they can't use lenses), then you see that it's a modern thing and you don't spread myths

[@hiota45]

Wearing it in the front might look a bit ridiculous but it also reminds me of one the most popular way for carrying a concealed pistol, which is appendix carry. As a practical matter, having it in the front makes it easy to access quickly and also allows a person to protect the weapon from being taken by another person.

[@jR-nc1uz]

Always appreciate these demonstrations! Thanks! The downside of carrying it in the watch coat method is the risk of blunt trauma to the groin in case of a fall, or cutting wounds if the dagger wears through the sheath. Lots of important veins and arteries there. I've always worn long knives and a bayonet behind the hip in a loose dangle for the reasons you've described. Especially keeps the handle from jabbing you if you sit down in the woods. You mentioned that frogs are a more 17th century item for daggers, is that true of sword sas well, or do you mean frogs weren't in common use as a concept until the 17th century?

[@TurnierRustung]

Nice vid. I think the one distinction I would make is that in the early medieval period (pre-1066) we have enough compounding artwork to be prescriptive of specific wearing methods that we know were used signficantly. Seaxes were usually hung from two points over the front of the body, and baltic style fighting knives to the left or right side. There is a good group on facebook called the seax files that could tell you far more about the wearing of seaxes and baltic knives than I could if you wish to know more

I dropped onto your video, I'm an ECW re-enactor and taking my leave from an engraving of pikemen leaving a castle, I wear my 12" blade parallel to the belt at the back with it's short hilt to the RH. I wear everything on the RH, bandolier, snap sack, 1st Purse, my rear 2nd purse include Shotgun License, Explosive License, Penknife, Gas Lighter, and Screw. I don't wear a sword since running is sometimes required, which is when the front dangling eating knife can be painfull. Since my green soldiers coat(with two darts) hides the dagger, a musket in the LH to block, the knife comes as a surprise, dropping musket, grab chin, slice throat ear to ear with RH (I do drop my little finger to guard flesh wound).

Not sure how I stumbled across your video as the time period you focus on is the one I focus least on.

I look forward to checking out your content, & store.

[@atadbitnefarious1387]

That bollock dagger in the front is akin to how some people carry a firearm, usually concealed, today. They call it "appendix carry." It is a popular form of carry because it doesn't "print" as much as on the hips, where the shape of the firearm is shown through your clothing and makes it obvious that there is a pistol there. It is also very comfortable and consistent when sitting down. As you can imagine, you want a pistol to sit rigid on your belt, to both protect it, and facilitate safe draw and holstering. As opposed to have it dangling from a thong for example. Or it being able to freely slide back and fourth on the belt. Drawing from the front is the same when sitting as standing, it's easy to get to, whilst still being rigid and offering good retention. Whereas drawing from the hip, requires you to contort your body slightly to clear the weapon from the holster. This way of carrying a firearm, essentially with the muzzle end pointed directed at your bollocks... is a point of contention for a lot of folks. As you could imagine, there are many men, in the past and present, who are weary of carrying a weapon this way. But it's interesting that even before the times of firearms, that men carried weapons in the same exact place lol.

[@andrewknight1446]

Wearing a slightly shorter ballock dagger front and center works very well for fighting as a secondary weapon. I make ballock dagger from rattan for fighting with several different groups one of which allows lot more robust fighting and having that dagger right in the middle of you where you can grab it with either hand and a very short draw and start stabbing your opponent when you're close quarters works very well. It gives you lots of options.

[@cam-inf-4w5]

Also dangling the dagger wont fall out when you bend over if the sheathe is loose or the dagger has no loop. I used a s&w hrt dagger when they first came out for about 2 years on a farm so im kindof the exact type of modern day equivalent this applies to lol. I loved that little knife but i didnt like keeping it clipped, bc the sheathe was attached to my beltline firm when i had to hang upside down, climb over fences, crawl under tractors, bend over to hook up different equipment to tractors rear, work on the roof, fall off the back of trucks, chase cows, if the dagger was unclipped it would fall out bc the sheathe had play but a crossgaurd clip if that makes sense. I then found out the much cheaper less cool way of just letting things hang is more practical in many ways, later i used it in my boot as it was meant to be a boot knife and it fell out less bc my feet rarely are upside down like my torso was. I love a firm in place sheath with a tight clasp on a blade and 1 simple crossgaurd strap, the handle type strap is the dumbest thing ever invented especially on knives with no crossgaurd bc the knife slides up and you cut your fingers or the whole knife goes through the leather ring anyway. I also wanted a kydex sheath so bad but was later glad it was once again the cheaper leather version bc the rounded leather was constantly making skin contact and it would have been awful if it was sharp plastic. Wearing the dagger outside my belt was also not possible bc you squeeze in and brush against so many things, putting half the dagger in my pants and clipping it from the other side is genius if your dagger is short, like conceal carrying a firearm bc everything brushes your jeans and not constantly flips your knife off your belt. I beat the living dogsht out of that thing in literally every single way you could possibly imagine. Its a popular knife now but then i was taking a risk and it held up. Theres multiple ways the company could have spent 20 more cents to make it way better though lol. And now for the price theres probably better options. I initially only got it bc its impossible to find a fairbairn sykes style dagger that isnt a toy or $500. And even the $500 one is just a rat tail you dont wanna use.

I did Scots in the SCA in the years before the internet so we had to figure much of this out ourselves. From my active duty military service, I learned to keep more than one knife on me... on specifically kept for food only. My dirk [well, it was more like a single-edged ballocks dag] originally came with a frog and I found that I had the problems described. Every time I went through a narrow-ish door or sat down, the damned thing would hang up and get in the way. It wasn't until I made a single piece scabbard and thong loop that it became comfortable.

Correct me if I'm mistaken but wearing a dagger vertical in front of you looks to have obvious problems when you sit down, bend over, ride a horse, or several other situations, but if the dagger were attached to the belt with a loose thong then the dagger could easily be moved to a horizontal - and much more comfortable - position.

It's interesting that the most popular way to carry firearms and defensive knives in the modern world is also at the front of the belt. While nowadays it would be covered by the wearer's shirt, carrying appendix still allows for the fastest and most consistent draw possible, especially in awkward positions. That's very important since being in an awkward position is almost guaranteed in a fight. What's old is new again.
