Back Scabbard

Keep your sword visible on your back and bring every draw and sheath to life with three scabbard styles.

About this addon

Back Scabbard makes your equipped sword a visible part of your character. Worn in the chest slot, the scabbard displays the model matching your sword. Select it to draw the sword over your right shoulder, then switch slots to sheath it again. Three finishes and configurable light effects complete the look without changing combat.

Downloading is free. Your optional support helps develop more addons.

Features in detail

A scabbard that makes your style visible.

Back Scabbard displays your sword in a scabbard equipped in the chest slot. It recognizes materials from wood to netherite, so the sword on your back matches the one you carry.

Select the sword to draw it over your right shoulder, then switch slots to sheath it again. Choose from three finishes and customize the light on the runic designs without changing weapon damage or normal sword use.

IN DETAIL

A scabbard that moves with you.

Carrying a sword can be part of the character.

Your sword, even when it is sheathed

Equip the scabbard in the chest slot and make your sword part of your character’s silhouette. The addon recognizes wood, stone, copper, iron, gold, diamond and netherite swords to display the matching model on your back. Select the sword to draw it over your right shoulder, then switch slots to sheath it. Each motion takes about half a second, while first-person play continues to work as usual.

Three scabbard styles

Choose the look that fits your character.

Classic: a traditional, understated finish.
Sculk, Runic Echo: a dark surface with cyan details and luminous engravings.
Umbral, Runic Veil: dark leather with violet details and engraved symbols.

Runic light and enchanted swords

Runic designs can glow as you draw or sheath the sword, pulse periodically or remain unlit. If you carry an enchanted sword, an optional highlight pairs a luminous edge with an animated reflection on its sheathed model without hiding the original design. You can control both options in Scabbard Settings.

Visual accessory

The scabbard occupies the chest slot as a visual accessory. It adds no armor points and does not change sword damage. The addon includes a behavior pack and a resource pack.

Back Scabbard already works alongside other Minecraft Bedrock addons. Its scabbards display the equipped sword and its draw and sheath animations without changing how the sword normally works.
