==Trivia==

In the Realms, crafters often decorated scabbards with irtios, a pale yellow gemstone, because it was believed that the gems would prevent rot.
A group of dwarven assassins in Gracklstugh were known as the Empty-Scabbard Killers. This was because they were often soulknives who could manifest a blade of psychic energy and thus did not need a physical blade in their scabbards.
In thieves' cant, the word for "sword" was kam, and the word for "container" was kanab; the word for "scabbard" was simply kamkanab.
