I have a friend who is making chail, and bought a pliers to pein the rivets.

To tell the truth, they were not very well made (mainly too soft)

We had someone who had a plan for using modern lineman pliers to make peining pliers. Does anyone remember them, or have a link?

, I happened to notice one title on samurai by Anthony J Bryant. Am I mistaken, or is this a work by the late, great Effingham?

I would like to know how long the faceplate should be (or rather, what measurement I need to take on the wearer) and if...
