Arthurian Pas Ideas....?

I'm currently reading Le Morte d'Arthur.

I'm a little less than 1/2 way through it right
now and am starting to think about a Arthur
themed pas....

I reached the part with the tourney with the
'rainbow' of knights last night....

Any other suggested readings for this idea?

Specifically his more detailed work...

I've been talking with him about some work on a

How do they hold up to SCA combat abuse?
