📋 About This Mod
Full-length back sheathes aren't the most fashionable, which is why a majority of the sheathes from Weapon Sheathing are more like holsters. In my Better-Shaped Claymores mod I've made a few such holsters into full-length sheathes, necessitating a mod like this which gives claymores the same sheathe position as one-handed swords.
This mod differs from the existing Weapon Sheathing - Two-Handed Long Blade Sheath Position Edit only in the exact rotation of the position. Mine is a copy of the existing one-handed sword position, giving a more natural look, whereas the aforementioned mod has them jutting out more.
Hip-Sheathed Claymores is a small immersion mod for Skyrim that repositions claymore sheathing from the back to the hip, emphasizing their use as longswords. With 18 endorsements and 429 downloads, it's a niche cosmetic tweak for players who prefer realistic sword carry.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros

⚠️ Cons
- Only affects claymores—other greatswords remain unchanged

For Skyrim players who care about visual immersion and want their claymores to sit on the hip like historical longswords. Skip if you're looking for gameplay changes or if you rarely use claymores.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to place the mod files in your Data folder or use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2.
- If you use other mods that change weapon sheathing, load this one after them to ensure it takes effect.
- Test with a claymore equipped—sheathe and unsheathe to see the new position.
