Black Laquered Kote. Worn once, not in combat. Must be worn over low profile elbow to pass SCA inspection. Not attached to the cloth bits. Cost 169.00 from the Japanese re-enacting site. Need $ for horse burial costs. My loss is some Budo's gain. $95.00+shipping. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...

14th C and 15th C stirrups

I want to get a pair of stirrups for my show. Anyone have any good pics or research on the stirrups of the 14th and 15th C? I have a couple examples of a 1475ish pair, and some pics, but want to get some good material before I ask someone to replicate them.

Thanks!

When you are done with the surgeries and all healed up I'll meet you half-way at our training facility in Ohio. You can give it a try at the lower level and see if you want to try it with the real lances.

I know you have armor! So..... :twisted:
