Armour Happy Dance

Post by Broadway »

(if this posts all sorts of times, its because the archive is acting all screwy)

I got to do the happy dance today as the UPS dude dropped off a package from Morgan d'Antioche!

My new half gaunt arrived today, yippie!

Its stainless with a brass rope at the wrist.

I likes it bunches... it fits just right, and looks exactly as I expected.

Wait a minute?

You ordered just one half-gauntlet? Why not a pair?

Am I misunderstanding?

Apparently we suffer the same inclination towards forgetfullness...

I got one half gauntlet for a couple reasons...

- it was cheaper than two.
- its purely for SCA sword and shield combat, and I don't wear a half gauntlet behind my shield.
- it was cheaper than two.
