Re: Wicker shield

Just a thought on making one of these as an every day use SCA shield: find a hi res photo of the shield desired and have a sign maker print out a vinyl overlay to affix to an aluminum blank. I bet it would fool the eye if the original picture was good enough. Constructing one to use as Lord Osazuwa ...

Re: Wanting to commission a Coppergate helmet

I plan on making a Coopergate around the Raymond's Quiet Press nasal but that won't be for a while since I want to make it out of 14 gauge stainless and need to make the pattern, etc. You can't go wrong with Knotwolf provided you have the qualifications needed to commission a helmet from him. What i...

Re: In search of viking helm for SCA heavy combat

My guess is since the occular looks like it comes down straight the added size of the helmet gives clearance for his nose.

The Mad Max visage popped into my head before I read your whole post. My only concern would be padding-if things went sideways.

Very nice, sharp detail. Would you be able to etch brass pieces that'd already been formed(but not yet attached) to a helmet?

Re: Modified Indian-made helms for SCA Cut and Thrust?

Re: 5th peerage, a letter from a White Scarf

My Wife and I recently bought long swords which can be used for both rapier and C&T. This past Coronet we brought them out to play after in the Roses tourney. A couple other rapier players didn't think they belonged on the rapier field. We then did some half swording within rapier conventions and by...
