Likewise Samehada, being a giant mass of hooksspikes, is sheathed in a cloth wrapping and has a strap (or in Killer Bee s case, a rope) that goes around that, thought its often very hard to see.īeing an Empathic Weapon with some degree of shapeshifting, Samehada presumably assists its wielding by staying in place. Suigestu averts this, as you can see the strap from his front, and its shown quite clearly how it wraps around (which also explains the functional purpose of the huge semicircular notch in the Decapitating Carving Knife). One panel in the Chain of Memories manga shows that its actually jutting out of his pants belt. When he draws his sword, all he needs to do is release the security chain and lift the sword clear of the hook. It is kept from swaying by a leather strap on a chain that wraps around the opposite side. His even larger BFS the Dragon Slayer has no scabbard, but instead is held up by a ring on the hilt that engages a hook on his baldric.

Since the zanpakuto is part of his soul and the scabbard is part of the zanpakuto, the scabbard repairs itself so Hitsugaya can sheathe his sword again. Though its more like hes too short rather than the sword is too long. In the Fullbring arc, Ichigos new intermediate Fullbring form allows him to magically clasp his sword to his back. Justified by his BFS not being an actual physical object but a sentient familiar spirit, and close inspection shows that the cloth that wraps around his sword to form a makeshift sheath does so while also wrapping itself around the sash he wears. If the weapon is stuck to the back and rarely actually used, then its an Ornamental Weapon. Note that though the words sword and back are used a lot through this article, this trope covers any and all situations where a characters equipment is held in place without a viable sheathing mechanism, be it by the hip or on the back, a BFG or a shield, by a diminutive sash or someones bare skin, etcetera.

Hand Waving that lets the badass just slide his pointy tool along his dorsum and have it held in place by some invisible force.
