Ummmmmmmmmm idk.

@rae

The tree is the base of the saddle. Western saddle trees are made out of wood, and English saddles are made out of plastic/synthetic materials so they’re considerably lighter.

Technically a tree does go over the withers, but it goes over the horse’s back too. So if you want to be more specific it’s called the gullet.

@savannah_grace @rae

No idea. I know nothing about horses, lol.

Sword Quiz!

What’s the thing that attaches the sheath to your belt called?

@rae

Australian.

@rae

Isn’t it the gullet?

@rae @jonas @highscribeofaetherium

@savannah_grace2009

I liked swords and writing separately at first, but then I was like, “Hey, I can put swords in writing.” 🤯 some revelation, wasn’t it XD

@rae

Oops. You tagged Jonas….so was I not supposed to answer it? sorry XD

@rae

Hmm. Girth, right? (Or cinch in western terminology)

@highscribeofaetherium

Exactly. Though yours is somewhat related to your writing…and mine is so RANDOM…..chickens??????

@highscribeofaetherium

To be fair, I did have to Google “obscure sword terminology” to come up with Ricasso. But yeah, it’s an obsession XD

lol

@savannah_grace2009

See? We all have our weird, fanatic obsessions XD

@highscribeofaetherium @jonas

Most people have an obsession, but it usually isn’t chickens.

@savannah_grave2009

Most people have an obsession, but it usually isn’t swords.

@savannah_grace2009

To be fair, I did have to Google “obscure sword terminology” to come up with Ricasso. But yeah, it’s an obsession XD

@jonas

lol! I’ve just never had any desire to learn about swords XD

Though if you asked me anything about CHICKENS…or DOGS…or HORSES….I could tell you anything you wanted to know lol

@savannah_grace2099

It’s kinda an obsession.

@jonas

Yeah lol.

@highscribeofaetherium

How do you know so much about swords???

@highscribeofaetherium

It sounds like Picasso, which is obviously a name.
