The Armour Archive

Lloyd

Gwen, I was actually thinking more along the lines of what the IJL and Rod are doing, rather than Charlies. I have posted publicly in the past about the real dangers of the "heavy armour" style of jousting - I did it for years and paid the price. However, that being said, there are more th...

Lloyd

Gotta start putting a new team together....

Lloyd

Mike, don't sweat it. Are you on the FB Tiltyard?

Lloyd

What size is the riveted maille? And, are you still selling it?

I am not sure if you have concluded your garage sale or not - sorry for the trouble if you have.

Lloyd

You can't call him that unless you have met him first. You hurt his feelings if you question his personality based of his public relations material. I can see where you are coming from, but, that's the face he decided to show america and should be comfortable with the judgment given. And, based on ...

Lloyd

I thought it was a great piece. The more positive media we can get, the better.

Now, if we could just get rid of the infighting between styles, we might actually make a serious go of this as a sport.

Just my two pence.

Lloyd

Okay, this one might be genuine -German Sword

At least it is not obvious Toledo junk from the 1980s.

Lloyd

I asked about this seller sometime back:

viewtopic.php?f=3&t=136732

It is Terry Nix from Niximperial: http://www.niximperial.com/

Lloyd

Okay, its not a helm, but c'mon:

knight's sword

This is just ridiculous:

Original Period Items

Lloyd

Doug, what kinds of guns are you looking for?

Lloyd

Anyone know who this may be?

Armory World

He's on Ebay and is shipping all of his armour for free.

Just wondering if anyone knows who it may be.

Lloyd

Okay, that was supposed to be a PM....ugh.

If your offer is still open, I would love to have it back. It may be awhile before I can pay you or I still have quite a few books left that we might be able to trade.

Talk to you soon,

Lloyd

Lloyd

Gideon, give Museum Replicas a call. They used to sponsor me with my jousting and they were willing to create Team USA tabards for the World Championships. They may be a good source for sponsorship.

Good luck!

Lloyd

Kult of Athena has some new belts with period buckles (and some with tips) at really good prices.

Lloyd

Randy W wrote:Lloyd, if you want let me know and I'll send it, pay me when you can

Go ahead and sell it, Randy. I have quite a few things on the list for my new business that I need to buy first. But, I appreciate it!

Lloyd

That belt looks strangely familiar....

Maybe if its still available in a few weeks, I may take it off of you!

Yep, I have the bronze sitting in basement

Good, because if you were dropping the price again I was going to hit you upside the head. Whoever got this got ONE HELLUVA DEAL.

Lloyd

Troy, you''ll love it. Mine has held up better than my old 12ga steel ones. Vitus makes one helluva ecranche (Now, I have to convince him that he needs to keep making them!)

Lloyd

Balin, You were entirely right in bringing this issue up as it is obviously, your Worst Pennsic XL Moment. It may have reinforced your distrust of "eastern" kingdoms and their ways - or it may have just pissed you off. Either way, getting into a pissing match on the Archive or any other i...

Lloyd

I didn't intend to imply that he would "make a spectacle" over this, but, that if he felt that he was NOT allowed due process, that he would have spoken, as a Peer, to at least the King/Queen of his kingdom about the matter. I also said that I know "of" him - hell I could have f...

Lloyd

Balin, I understand and admire that you are very passionate about what you perceive, not saying that you are wrong and "they" are right, as what has to look to you to be extremely unchiv behavior on the part of the MC. If HG was not given the opportunity to find and bring defense witnesses...

Lloyd

I am sure that HG would have made it abundantly clear to the powers that be that he was wronged in the decision, and that he would have appealed the judgement. That he did not, to me, speaks volumes. Then you really don't know him as much as you think you do. Taking the high road and not causing mo...

Lloyd

I don't have a dog in this fight, I'm not even in the SCA at the moment, but I have a question: Balin, you said that HG was unfamiliar with the Marshal's Court and that he needed to have witnesses there. Did he make the Marshal's aware of this and, if so, why wasn't he allowed to ask for a break in ...

I'm with Adrian, that would make a great jousting helm.

Lloyd

HOLD ON - I ran out of popcorn!

Lloyd

The pictures do not do this sword justice. This is one extremely awesome sword and I'll have to check Jon to see if he took a head wound because I was sure that he would never let this go (especially for that price!)

Lloyd

And - Jim is an awesome and very honourable man to deal with. Can't really say that about some faceless boxstore...

Lloyd

I've got a pair pollaxes with you on the way and another pair of pollaxes with another weapon maker. If I order another pollaxe I fear my wife will hand them to the kids to beat me. But very tempting. Thank you for the temptation. -Aaron Aaron, if she wants them out, you can always hide them at my ...

Lloyd

But yeah, I would love to hear you speaking in Thees and Thous... it wouldn't help sales, but it would be a hoot for me to listen to. Are you kidding? Jeremy has a hard enough time speaking regular American English, if it wasn't for Nikki, most of us would have no idea what he was trying to say... ...

Lloyd

Allan is awesome and I always highly recommend him, however, unless he has changed, he doesn't work in stainless.

The majority of my next jousting kit will come from him, so you should give him a yell.

Lloyd

Jason, I have to come over there and show you guys my styling "spear the cabbage" technique....

We gotta play soon!

Lloyd

That's good news, just wanted to make sure that you got your order. BTW, New Glarus is bottling their Special Edition Fall Brew right now...
