Re: Hiding Modern Footwear
Does anyone have copies of the original poster's pics? Thanks, Teric If I recall correctly, Uric's looked alot like Jestyr's a couple posts up. He had a Norman persona. I don't have them on my computer anymore but I did find them on my old photobucket account. I tried to re-link them but am just ha...

Re: Sinew
Hey Randall, The artificial sinew I've used from Tandy Leather Factory is pretty nifty stuff. It's rather yellowish and waxy and was pressed into a flat strip before being wound around the bobble they sell it on - it is easily split into smaller strips for finer work. However, I've also purchased t...

Re: Hobnails and Cleats, how dangerous are they?
I fought in cleat for years without any issues and I dealt with the shifting weight of a maille hauberk. But like other mentioned your physical conditioning and weight will play factors into it. I also used velcro, hinged knee braces as the base to attach my knee cops, so I was less concerned about ...
