I have had the pleasure of handling this weapon. The scabbard and suspension system are wonderful. I may have to break into josh's house while he's at work.

After I saw your new one, I went back through the thread to take a look at some of your other projects. They all look great. Keep it up.

Not my projects, but those of a friend named Greyson Brown. He is skilled.

Mid 14th century is his very favorite period, Murdock. His turnaround time for this project was just a few weeks; I was startled by his speed. If you like, I'll put you in contact with him.

Incidentally, I'm having him re-do all the leather strapping on my armour to match. Originally, it all was that color, but the fire changed that. I suck at leatherwork.

I've met Greyson and have seen examples of his work. He's a very sincere young man with a lot of potential in this arena.

Greyson just created an Archive account, Murdock. He'll be in contact with you shortly. I regret that I don't have an e-mail address for him; I used the Private Message system at MyArmoury.com to get in touch with him.

I've recieved a couple of e-mails from people interested in having me do a scabbard. Thanks, I'm glad other people like my work, and I hope to do a lot more scabbard making. As I informed those who got ahold of me, though, I am going to be moving soon, and do not expect to be able to start work on any projects until April. If, however, anyone is interested in a scabbard, let me know. You can PM or email me. My email address is my first name dot my last name at hotmail.com.

Unfortunately, I do not have a website, but the thread that Josh linked to at myArmoury.com shows most of my work, and I will update that as I finish more pieces.
