I've cleaned up this Swede Sam Browne belt and modified it some. Like I said, it hung too high for me, so I found an old black leather belt that is a close match to the shoulder strap. Then, using a Swiss d-ring and my awl, I grafted a piece onto the rear end of the strap where it attaches to the belt. Now it is long enough to wear over any clothing, parka, etc. Looks good too.

With some black shoe polish I spiffed up the color and the whole thing came out looking good and also functional.
