I saw this and this made me smile. Actually it says Sword/axe holder for children. Little do they know: its actually a deadly weapon Wink. Funny!

I never even thought of that , a split pouch used as a belt with a axe holder.

Oh, I’m pretty sure they know exactly what it is. It’s like the “patch trap adapters” that allow you to thread an oil filter onto a gun... you know, for cleaning the barrel.

I don't know. It definitely looks like a sling to our eyes but then it has a weird pouch if it is a sling, doesn't have a rention loop and really short. Honestly, I don't really get it. Kids costumes aren't exactly known for their historical accuracy but where has this idea come from?

HA!

We just tuck the 'hawk through our sash when we reenact.  It's historically correct and it works nicely.  Never thought about using a sling.  And I did have to use one for a belt once.
