Thread: How to carry swords?

I need to find a hard case for swords- any suggestions on where to find something that would work?

Someone suggested a rifle case once.

Hi Sarah, it's not a hard case but I have a homemade long bag made out of a stiff material. It's wide enough for a curved sword or can hold multiple canes. It closes at the top with velcro and even has a CD and zills pocket and a handle.

BTW, off topic, did you get my last email?

For gigs I use a leather scabbard a friend of mind made for me. For air travel (hard case/check in needed) use an old guitar case (electric bass) that my husband outfitted with foam to protect the sword (which is still in it's leather scabbard). I throw in a couple business cards so security (they always check it) know what it's for. :)

Yeah - I need the case to be hard- so I can strap it down on my scooter and protect it from getting bent :)

Last email? If I didnt respond- please send it to me again, I must have missed it!

Scooter? Awesome! I've riden my motorcycle to teach but never brought my sword with. Hmm.... I'm not sure what else may work. Something like a pool cue case would be perfect, but those are so narrow.

Got your email. Thanks.

what about a small rifle case?
