That's great news, RL...because the email I sent Matt yesterday bounced back. I hope he's ok; last bit of news I'd heard was that he'd has some sort of cardiac episode. Anyway, glad you have a reference, can't wait to see what the end result looks like.

Paladin74

I don't think I ever got them; let me see if I can get a set of instructions from Matt.

Paladin74

I think I downloaded them; let me look- probably be able to email them to you.

Paladin74

I'll get it out today or tomorrow at the latest man, thanks.

Paladin74

Ok man, invoice sent!

Paladin74

Hi guys; astonishingly enough, it IS still available. Been boxed up since I put it up on here for sale.

Hrolfr: to your zip it is estimated to be $20.01 via UPS Ground.

Paladin74

I heard that man, it is still available should you change your mind.

Paladin74

Bump.

Paladin74

Bump.

Paladin74

No problem man, it is currently still available.

Paladin74

Bump.

Paladin74

This item is SOLD. Thanks all for the interest.

Paladin74

But the price hasn't changed...what's the real price, or are you actually looking to get $1015 for a gorget?

Paladin74

Pics added.

Paladin74

Added a couple pics.

PM replied; sorry about the first response with the wrong images.

Paladin74

Front, back and sides. No idea on thickness but it is SCA legal. I don't have calipers so I couldn't tell you but perhaps someone more familiar with Matt's work could weigh in?

Remember Allen Senefelder of Mercenary's Tailor? These are new, one of the last sets to come out of his shop, 16 gauge mild steel. The bluing is very uniform, the pauldrons articulate on leathers and have leather straps at the lower end with steel buckles and mounts, and eyelets drilled at the top f...

I was going to suggest Draven as well. I haven't seen Torvaldr around for a while.

Hey folks, I have a Visby coat of plates kit from Mad Matt's Armory; I never got around to building it so it is still in original form. Just to be clear on the kit, it includes instructions for the shell pattern but does not include rivets or shell material, just the plates which are pre-shaped and ...

LeonStar wrote:What material is the coat?

Yes, I'd like to know as well.

Paladin74

How much for the legs? What are the measurements?

Paladin74

I wish I made more money...those pieces look magnificent man!

Paladin74

I've ordered a couple of gambesons from them; they do really well with measurements, both of mine fit near-perfect. They've not been used much so I couldn't tell you about durability. Pricing couldn't be beat. I got each (two different orders) about a month after ordering- considering where they're ...

Paladin74

A little bit late but just for information about this situation: 1.Package was shipped Dec 9th 2017 2. This order was fully refunded as customer wished . 3. According USPS tracking package arrived to recipient January 5, 2018 at 2:16 pm , nothing heard about returning this order back as unpaid. BTW...

Paladin74

Hey man, are you changing personas or calling it quits? I'm interested in the coif w/ventail, is it flat or round ring? What's shipping to 20720?

Paladin74

That Dadao is a monster, Lance- I like it! The identical cut with the Lung Chuan just shows that technique is as important as size and sharpness. I think that Silvia might be my favorite of your swords yet- I love that blade shape! Nice work, man.

Paladin74

Yes, it is. If I had that money laying around, I'd have already acquired it. Good luck with the sale, Cian.

Paladin74

I have some mail pieces, riveted, laying around the man cave. How much you need?

Paladin74

lol @ Curt

I took it to mean - 16 years later and there he was, still not having attended Pennsic. Or did he finally make it?

Paladin74

Ah well. No FB here.

Paladin74

Anyone have a link to their site?

Paladin74

I'm thankful for it as well, as I have no eye for discerning between the real and the fake. Thanks Mac!

Paladin74

Well you do say no shipping, so I'm assuming they'll need to pick it up?

Paladin74

Man, would you look at the size of that thing? Love it! Nice cuts!
