During the Third Crusade in the 13th century, the Assassins, including Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad, used throwing knives, and kept them in a wide belt wrapped around their waist.[2]

In Victorian era London, the Assassin Jacob Frye was quite fond of his belts, and his collection included many which referenced his heritage.[7]
