I can’t say to much about it but Sasa has found a reference to a Russian female grave that contained a nice Vendelish type helmet in it, a two handed sword was also found in the same grave! I don’t know much more but was cautioned by an archaeologist friend of mine about the whole female grave i...

Winterfell you keep saying: "My personal opinion is that it would look better and more in keeping with the old tournament helms" Yeah, sure it does, so this improves your little part of the SCA, great, we all strive to improve our part.

Howdy Wil/Brodir! Thats the Valsgarde 5 helm, a guy from Texas has commissioned a dress helm based on this pattern from me. As for the helmet, the castings, the weave work and the bluing are awesome! The occular region looks a bit odd but if you look at the line drawings from Tweddle's book [img]htt...

good point Jurgen the average 'bought at Home Depot' saftey glasses are meant to stop sawdust/sparks and such from entering the eye but are they meant (ie are they strong enough) to stop a short range thistle missle?
