FS Merctailor Simple & Fancy Espauliers w/ Brass Buckles

Post by AL »

I have for sale two pairs of simple and one pair of the fancy espauliers we used to make.

The simple espauliers are made from 16 gauge steel with an outwardly turned edge on the bottom lame and beveled edges on the others. Includes eyelets at the top for pointing and hand made brass buckles and steel mounts with light decorative file and chiselwork. I'd like to get $37.00 plus shipping per pair ( used to sell for $45 with out the hand made buckles ).

The fancy espauliers are made from 16 gauge CR mild steel with a rolled and counter sunk bottom edge and beveled palte edges where appropriate as well as a full length medial ridge. They articlulate on leather front an back and are fully strapped including hand made buckles with steel mounts with light decorative file and chiselwork. There are pairs of eyelets at the tops for pointing but I can install buckles if desired for no extra charge. They are 10 inches long and taper slightly from top to bottom. I have 14.5 inch bicepts and took into account arm harness when building and they fit me fine. I can make adustments to the curvature for fit. We used to get over $70 for these without hand made buckles. I'd like to get $52 plus shipping.


Feel free to ask questions. Paypal, check or MO are fine.

Also still have arms viewtopic.php?f=3&t=163778, and elbow and knee cops viewtopic.php?f=3&t=163762

I have a pair of the fancies that I've had for several years now...no issues of any kind. These are even better than the ones I have because these have the detail file work and the pretty brass buckles- mine are very plain and utilitarian.
