Do you know who made the Kabuto originally?

Someone in Ukraine. I'll look up that Facebook group, thank you!

Sjolander

I have a kabuto that needs a new face grill made for it. The one I have juts out too far to be sca legal. It's detachable. Anyone in the Maryland area handy with metal?

Sjolander

I'll relinquish my dibs. I can't see it and don't want to hold up the sale for those who can.

Sjolander

The Facebook link doesn't work for me because I am not a member of that group (application is pending).

Sjolander

I would like to call dibs on the helm, but I need to see it first. Could you send me a photo?

Sjolander

I'll give you 60+ shipping for the shoulders. I don't need the other pieces

Sjolander

Damn! Is this the same place you would get your belt-leather? I love your belts!!! I want to order some more from you but you've been out of stock

If so, it makes sense now.

Sjolander

Hopefully that turns out to be good news about the insurance.

Are those pauldrons for sale or are they someone's order?

Articulation is unbeatable in my experience. This is why most of the top pro fighters in the world use this style. Great articulation and amazing grip.

I'm in the market for some custom shovel greaves for my wife. When I get home tonight I will fill out the form on your Etsy site.

Edit: Ok, order's placed!

Send me a message or an email with what measurements you need.

Looking to buy/rent/borrow some garb I can wear to an event this weekend. Currently in Hanover, Maryland. I'm a medium sized guy, 5'10 190lbs. Doesn't need to be a specific time period. medievaloid is fine. Just need SOMETHING to wear so I can attend.

Sjolander

Here's what I use. It will fit EVERYTHING, shield, helmet, everything.

Greetings,

I just got a set of Purpleheart Armories' pentti III shortswords and they both have a slight bend to the right from either being stored incorrectly or damaged during shipment. Anyone know of a good way to make them straight again?

Sjolander

Here's some videos. I really do have mixed feelings about it all. I am most definately NOT a boffer kind of guy and never have been. Sometimes I cringe; sometimes I facepalm and at other times I have to laugh. But there's a spirit they all share that I can't help but admire. http://www.youtube.com/w...

Sjolander

So a few months back I found out there's been boffer competitions at big anime conventions for the last 5 years. Mainly a company called Sleeping Samurai, who hosts the tournaments to sell their boffers. Searching through the Youtube videos of these events, I've noticed these folks doing stuff I've ...

Zombie-thread!!! Now that another year of BoTN has come and gone, does anyone notice a difference?

Sjolander

Anyone know if this guy is still alive?

Water, B-viatmins, Carbs. These are what will keep you in the game. Water... drink it. Drink it before, drink it during, drink it after. Not so much you're sloshing around, but Don't skimp either. B-Vitamins. They will help you process carbs and get the most bang for your buck. There are plenty of s...

Good to see Alchemy Armory is back in business. I purchased a full set of his Japanese armor in 2005 and I have to say, it is practically bomb-proof. I use it for loaner gear now, but it is so amazingly comfortable and protective. Those legs alone, the knee-shin combo, are the best legs I have ever ...

Sjolander

I have nothing intelligent to say about this buckler, but I feel I must go there because... boobs.

That's the most breasty-looking buckler I've ever seen!

Sjolander

I have that shot, but not in the combination you are using it in. It really seems like a winner if I follow with the flat snap. Thanks. Watching this vid raised another problem that I have: impatience. It looked like you hit him on the offside leg five or six times before he took it. I would have l...

Sjolander

I'm not qualified to say yes or no, but it looks similar to the way it's done in other competitions I've seen.

Sjolander

Bump! Still wondering if Ronan220 is alive. Anyone know him?

Sjolander

Anyone seen Ronan220 around? Haven't heard from him since November and he owes me a pair of half-gauntlets.

I don't want to clutter up Jay's shop with my stuff. He's got a lot of inventory he needs to sell and these items would probably get in the way.

Sjolander

I've got a lot of extra stuff lying around. Looking to sell it. Shipping for these items will range from 10 to 20 dollars depending on size. Here's the link to photos: http://imgur.com/a/7ZJcg Here's the info and measurements: Zoombang full protection shirt, only used once. size large. $100 **Sold**...

Sjolander

Irish, that photo is hilarious. You look like you're out for a pleasant stroll.

Sjolander

I'd like to commision one. Can I reserve one of the open spots?

Sjolander

Raise the prices man! You are too talented to starve.
