you put your preferred weapons like a sword and shield, axe, spear, whatever in there and that's what your character automatically switches to on combat start. if they're empty your character just uses whats in their hands.
preferably, your character will not use sheathed weapons or tools for non-combat, so i can keep my lower ql higher damage tinker axe in and my shield in my sheaths, and my higher ql stone axe in my hand. the tinker axe is used to kill something, then when combat is done, my char uses my stone axe to butcher it.
probably shouldn't keep the passives of equipped tools like extra inventory from a bindle, but ehh...
massive bonus points if your sheathed weapons appear on your back!
