Comments?

These are actually the prototypes, but they came out okay.

The quillions were hot hammered from 3/4" stock tapered down to 1/2" at the end, then welded to a peice of pipe, ground, and balls welded on, and grinding, grinding, grinding. These would go for $50-$60.

Two observations.

1. How do you intend for them to mount to the weapon?

2. The points where the pipe meets the rattan is very pretty, but might make marshal's nervous and I can understand why. In a bind where there is lots of pushing and shoving going on and weapons are bound up together someone could get raked with a sharp point.

Very pretty though. Matching pommels definitely.

Unfortunatly, no website at the moment.

I sell on ebay, through merchants on consignment, and through here and email.

I've got some more pics listed on the archive. http://home.armourarchive.org/members/rmermuys

The quillions are designed to be 2ton or 5min epoxied on, the points should actually be embeded into epoxy.

I do make Period Wheel and Brazil Nut Pommels. Here's a pic.
