I guarantee, it wont cost as much, as if buying a Knutt welded Titanium shirt. Believe me, I know first hand. :p If its anymore than $200, then not worth it for our sport, if its less, I could see a use for it, specially for voiders and the such. Like Sean said, I would be a hypocrit, if I said ther...

Syrfinn

Lol, one of my squires is a doc.

And I think he is an orthopedist to boot. :p

Syrfinn

You sure about that?

I could of swore, the first reference to Celt was Greek and then later used by Julius Ceaser, in his writings from Gaul.

I could be wrong, and thinking of another word, but could of swore that was the first time folks see the word.

Syrfinn

If Im ever king, and want to bansih someone, I wont banish them from my presence, will banish them to my presence. i figure I can have more fun that way.

Syrfinn

Angus, glad to hear you and her highness have come to an arraingement, I believe you will serve her well. As far as who cares about someones persona, honestly, the only person that needs to, and thats that person. I dont make my personna for anyone else, I made it for me. I've made the personna for ...

Syrfinn

By the way, got the gauntlets and they look good. Havent finished the strapping yet for fighting, will write a review once I do that and try the out. As far as your policy. I would not be giving them 30 days. 2 weeks is plenty long enough. If they get back to you in that time, then arraingments can ...

Syrfinn

Thought more about this last night when I went to bed. Im curious to hear the other side of it. Cause at first, I thought maybe, they just said it wrong, and meant to say the thrust actually hit outside the target area for face. Then yeah the fight should of restarted, and to be honest, thats a comm...

Syrfinn

Have to agree active marshalling is BS. Check the rules, last time I did, the opponents call the shot, not the marshal. Your opponent called good. Thats it. Its one of the things Duke Michael taught me and the rest of the guys. You only say two things on the field, Good or Light. There is no such th...

Syrfinn

Would agree with Randy, for stuff like that, I go to Tractor Supply. Always have a very good selection.

Syrfinn

yeah its in there, found it also, and yeah, does look really nice, and might be contacting you later next month about one.

Syrfinn

If I remember right, Rodrigo was at Warriors of History this year at Pennsic.

His whole kit was amazing, cant remember if he won for kit or not. For some reason i think he did.

I was really impressed by this helm and the kit he had to go with it.

Ah, the days of myself and Syr Black Kane O'Shannon, taking aluminum and bending it on our trailor wooden steps for knees, elbows and cuisses. Then going in the house and making garb by cutting out pattern and ducktaping the seams, instead of sewing them.

Thank god for Muirgen.

Syrfinn

Actually I am not the one to ask on that yet. I still have to put mine together. But several folks on the archive have them, and is the reason I got them. Plus I know several folks personally that have them and have checked them out and put on their sets to try first. Which is why I have gone to them.

Syrfinn

for Aluminum, I love the set I got from Syr Theo here on the board. here is his site.

Syrfinn

Ugh, so wish this was being sold a month from now.

But had to deal with truck after our 12th night. But this is a nice helm, and would give me my excuse to make a greek kit. Specially since I am getting Gunthers greaves also.

Syrfinn

Yeah, I keep trying to figure out how I am going to make a spatha. No one really sells the parts, which means I will need to have them made.

Syrfinn

In this kingdom, my biggest boogeyman would be Duke Christopher of York. I have always had issues against two sword fighters, but add the madu and sword and it has been a major mental issue. Whats funny, according to him, when I first moved up here, I gave him more problems. Most likely cause I didn...

Syrfinn

Ok, the Harrisburg/Carlysle area would make this person happy, if it was in that area. I have to travel to Harrisburg for work off and on, so know that drive well, and I could probably get a few AEthelmearc folks, who dont already go, to show up also. For the Pittsburgh folks, thats only like a 3 an...

Syrfinn

Actually, since AEthelmearc went kingdom, it might be split or we fought with East more. Would need to dig up some info for it to be sure. But I am pretty sure, we have not fought with Middle more since going kingdom.

Syrfinn

A few make these. If looking for Mild, most folks go with either Von Sussen or Historic Enterprises. Historic has a little banner at top. Just hit refresh and it pops after a while. If looking for Welded, that would be Master Knuut at weldedchainmail.com or there is another one that just showed up a...

Syrfinn

Lol, still love Skutais suggestion.

Granted, last crown, every fight when entering, I went to the marshals and combatant and said . "Finn O'Shannon, Rush Chairman, Damn glad to meet ya"

Syrfinn

Doesnt Platearmor do these, could of swore I saw a helm from them, that wasnt a bar grill, but was plate cut out in whatever form.

The person I am remebering had their helm with the face plate with like horses or whatever cut out from it.

Is that what your thinking of?

Syrfinn

Just placed my order.

Thanks again your Grace.

Now if I can just get ahold of guntherof Orkney and get my greaves, I will be a very happy boy.

Syrfinn

Darn, that might of fit my leg perfectly. :p

Nicely made, and grats on the buy.

Syrfinn

I agree with Dilan. I love field battles, and its one of my favorite battles. But 5 days straight of them, would get boring fast. I love the woods, I love ressurrection mountain pass battles, I love well done town battles. Actually I enjoy most battles. Main battle I dont like, is the Castle battle,...

Syrfinn

Just bumping this again. Just verified the money order was cashed, so if it wasnt Gunther who cashed it, and it got stolen in the mail. I need to know. If anyone knows him, could you please tell him to contact me. Only contact I had for him, was these boards, and he isnt answering pms. He can reach ...

Syrfinn

I believe it was either His Grace Malcolm and Tessas first or second reign, they tried to get the Middle and East vs everyone thing going, and it just didnt happen due to whatever reasons. But yeah that could be fun. As far as what would make it more fun, more organized stuff. I'm one who actually k...

Syrfinn

Syrfinn

Thanks Eric.

Yeah I knew some areas where getting hammered by rain and some by snow or something and had 400,000 folks blacked out. Couldnt remember exactly where Gunther lived, so figured he might be in one of the areas

Syrfinn

Just bumping. I am wondering if he is one of the many in CA effected by the storm. But havent heard from anyone.

Syrfinn

That bites Karl. I think I would get the word out to only deal with reputable armorers. And if the deal is to good to be true, well it probably is. I saw the ebay account of who you dealt with. Was his rep that bad, when you dealt with him, or did it go in the clink after? For you guys, honestly, if...

Syrfinn

I like this one better.

Syrfinn

If anyone knows him, could you please let him know I am trying to get a hold of him. Sent him a pm asking about the greaves I bought from him, but well forums blew up.

Will send him another pm also.

Thanks

Syrfinn

Correcting some numbers, I gave out, so to correct myself, since I just got a chance to look at the actual numbers and see I was wrong on them. Starting numbers for our side was 70, but we gained 3 by the last of the first set of field battles due to my squires finally showed up, from daytripping, a...
