The only difference between Jaune's shield-sheath and those shield-sheaths, is that Jaune's sheath can unfold to become a shield, but that's all it does: unfold. In fact, it's still a sheath while in shield mode.

Their technology back in the "old wars" would have to have been practically almost archaic for Jaune's shield-sheathe to not be possible to make back then. Yes I can understand where your coming from and it has brought me to do more research but I could only come up with these three examples 1,2,3.

However the noticable problem with those examples are they are made for costumes and are not the real things these were the closest examples of Jaune's sheild because most of the other pictures I found while doing my research is they all normally sit in the grip of the shield and the blades then hang by the hilt which is not how Jaune's works.

All I was trying to say is with the knowledge and power of dust and being capable of infusing weapons with dust the technology would be up there aswell however Jaune's blade has no such functions stating its either been around before dust was being infused with weapons or that it was made purposely not to have any type of secondary function, it just looks out of place in the cases of other weaponary includiing his own shield but that is my opinion.

What I did forget to disclose was the fact I have brief moments at night where my mind goes into a hyperactive state and I attempt to learn as much as I can and use what seems appropriate so I do apologise if I didn't impress anyone on it but I just enjoy listening and making theories and thoughts but I do take any critiquing.
