It is a go at some of Churburg ch 13- the breatplate, that is, the spauldiers are made to match, but the original has none (extant anyhow).

I was hoping it was a bit better than that but am not too surprised. I discounted churburg because it wasn't very globose.

Thank you all for the information and pictures. Next phase of the question is whether or not I was right on the time frame. Also, geographically, where would this be from?

Knowing what I do of His Grace's taste in liquids, coolest thing ever.

Glue a magnet to the inside, then you could do magnetic feather, ace of spades, etc. The hat is nine kinds of cool.

She might well end up doing that. She's kind of after something unique and cool and while she is actually excited by the impending bruises, she also likes to look like a girl.

A while back I asked for suggestions for a feminine look for fighting for my daughter. She was interested in doing early period Norse. Cunian suggested this , which she liked the idea of. Last night that all changed. A friend of ours, who changed her mind about fighting hardsuit, gave her a breastpl...

Hard to tell scale in something like that, but basing of nose, eys, and mouth, I would say that the trim is about 1", the sword belt looks more like 1 1/2" with the thinner belt being about 1/2"-3/4", probably no larger than 5/8" really. I doubt the artist was measuring thou...

I have a picture of my wife and of my daughter on my desk, I carry them with me in my thoughts. That is what inspires me in most things.

I hope your hands improve soon.

I'll give you the answer if I ever become one.

I didn't mention Cat because the last time I talked to her about them, she said that she was done with bosses at least until she got a larger forge. That may have changed by now.

Ingvarr

Mad Matt does bosses as does Stefhan. Matt's look cool on the internet although I've never seen one face to face, Stefhan's look pretty cool in person.

I make my grips out of a piece of rattan with about 1/4 split off.

I can attest to Frieman's Torvaldr gaunts being awesometastic. Before my knee blew and I needed the money, they were mine. It hurt me to sell them and I will soon be replacing them.

Good, I got my point across and you realized your folly. No, not really. And Ill let the insult roll off if you feel so inclined to get personal. I guess I should have put a smilie. I understand your point, I dont however agree with flaunting a symbol that will only rile up a hornets nest. Then you...

If i see it i think "AN guy trying to be subtle", esp as a Tattoo.

Common with Norse/Odinst/Thorite whatever AN types who wanna "die for Odin" or some such crap.

Note to self, hide tattoo if you ever meet Murdock.

Hmm...learn something new, guess I'm done for the day. I've seen it used by tri-delts but haven't ever payed much attention to the greek system.

Ingvarr

Use it. While some of them might use the symbol, they don't have ownership of it, nor do I see it as a symbol that is associated with them even if it is used by some of them. AFAIK, those of them who use it, do so as a symbol of their Odinism, not their racial beliefs anyway.

I'm going to try and get a complete round by round breakdown as there was far too much going on to see it all and I'm pretty curious. Some of the people I thought were going o last until late were gone in two and a couple that I was surprised were even on the list went fairly deep. About half of the...

It was a great tournament. It came down to Sir Tristan, Sir Walrick, and Duke Phelan in the finals, each having one loss after Sir Tristan beat Duke Phelan in the Semis. Sir Tristan beat Sir Walrick, Duke Phelan beat Sir Tristan, Duke Phelan beat Sir Walrick.

You would have scored a lot higher under my system for sure. Spending time with the hers is always important and sometimes even fun though.
