The Armour Archive

Beginning to clear out my work room so offering up some items here to Archivers before moving them onto various auctions. Some of these I have used and since upgraded from, other items I have picked up over time and are gathering dust. Truth be told, there is yet another helm that has caught my eye and this would help me secure it. Posting asking price, but willing to entertain reasonable offers. Can arrange for delivery at various SCA events throughout Midrealm to save buyer shipping costs.

1. 14th C. Churburg style stainless steel arms by Sasuke of Oak Armoury. ***SOLD*** These feature sliding rivets to allow forearm rotation.  Here is a link to his site with brass trimmed version:  http://www.oaksarmoury.com/brass.html. They have been used in the Cot30: These have some combat markings/dings but plenty of mileage still in them.

Asking $125 & shipping.


2. SS Splint & Leather Legs w/ articulated knees (unknown maker). Picked up Pennsic for a beginning fighter a few years ago, but never used.

Asking price $100 shipping included to continental 48 States.


3. 14th C. Mild Steel Spaulders (unknown maker). ***SOLD*** Nice design, great functionality and clean up nice to make a good 'white harness'. Also used during Cot30. In good shape aside from some minor rust etching.

Asking $45 & shipping.


4. Stainless steel High Gothic style Cuirass (breast & back) w/ simple fluted faulds - Illusion Armoury ***SOLD***
http://p7.hostingprod.com/@illusionarmoring.com/BGBandB.html. Picked up for a friend but he’s bulked up a bit so it’s going back on the block. Sized for Med. 38â€

Sizing on the Churburg arms? If they fit my arms over the gamboise sleeves, DIBS.

Hamish

Arms are 20" along the outside length when bent arm.
11 3/8" from point of elbow to cuff on outside when bent.
Foream is 13" around at the cutaway on the inside plate closest to the crook of the elbow and 10" around at the wrist.

My forearms are 15" around at the thickest part and these fit comfy.

I like them as they are up enough from the wrist by the inch or so that they don't conflict with the hourglass gauntlets.

Since I had the tape out ...

Spaulders are 7" across and 2 1/2" deep and 'curve' on the outside 7 1/8" long. The lames drape 3 3/4" below the main shoulder piece.

Definitely interested...lemme get some measurements when I get home.

Adding measurements for splinted legs:


Height from point of knee along front of leg - 11"
Center of knee to top of leather (towards hip) - 16.5"
Widtht point along leather/splints - 16.5"
Knee width (straight across) - 6.75"
knee depth (at center) - 6"
Demi-greave - 2" below last knee lame

Is the illusion gothic breast and back stainless by chance? Ulrich

Ouch .. forgot to put that into the description. Yes it is. Would explain the higher price. Will correct the initial post.

Dibs on gothic breast plate pending further sizing info. PM Sent. Ulrich

Those legs are Red Falcon

Second dibs on arms

What color is the arming cote?

The coat is their standard Brown with a black interior lining.

Let me know if that breastplate falls through. I'm very interested as well.

Sorry, paying fo the breatplate today! As soon as I get the PAYPAL invoice. Ulrich

Grrr...arms no fit my gorilla arms. sigh...

I will take the arming cote

Grrrr double post sorry

PMs sent to Raynr re: the arms and Pietro re: the coat.

I'll take the spaulders.

Curse you!

Nice catch hope it serves you well, and if you get tired of it get hold of me.

Everything has been claimed aside from the Legs. Anybody wanting to make a reasonable offer on them? I can drop it down to $100 shipping included to continental U.S. ...

Also, adding a Windrose Norman SS round top with brass cruciform nasal (Master Knuut large/wide SS flat ring welded maille mounted) never worn or chin strapped. Inner brow measurement of 28.25" and originally made for a 24.5" owner. Face is open bar work under the maille so plenty of breathing and vision. *wearing a trimmed down martial arts head pad for pictures only this helm is as new, not 'worn' or used in combat yet*

This would be great for someone to use in the maille only battle this upcoming Pennsic on Weds Aug 11th.

New from Windrose this would run over $750 & shipping plus the build time delay. Asking $700 & shipping.
