Answered your PM.

100% recommend him. Have my leg harness and am getting a helmet from him. No issues at all, great workmanship, great customer service.

Stay away from this vendor. He disappeared a couple years ago w/out refunding or sending a pair of demi gauntlets I ordered. Lots of gorget makers out there, take your business elsewhere.

I'll take the shield basket. Send me a PM for payment info.

Anton

I reinforce my upper right corner on my heater as it takes the vast majority of the shots. I take a 6"x6" square piece of material and attach it to give a reinforced corner. That reduces the warpage from the repeated blows and it doesn't weigh down the shield with reinforcement in areas that don't g...

Is this from SCA fighting or something else combined with it?

thanks and best of luck on your recovery!

This post takes me back to Pennsic XX, my first big event, I went with my knight. On the drive he told me a story of another knight he knew that had all of these different shots he would throw but my knight would consistently beat him on the field. After one of these defeats this knight's comment wa...

That's a mail fraud issue. From his zip code you can call the local USPS and figure out your next steps. Keep all your correspondence and hope that he resurfaces. Here's a form that you could fill out and send to the USPS. Good Luck

This guy is a motivational speaker... former Seal... he has a good perspective. His answer to 'we failed' is... good... go learn something from it.

Anyone familiar with Mr. Slyter? Figured I'd bump it since it's been 2 years (3/25/2015) since my order.

Be like the TV shows and test using ballistic gel. Slap some animal bones inside and mock up an arm.

Bad shot angle, had he been wearing his helm... LIKE HE IS SUPPOSED TO AFTER LAY ON... that shot would've skipped... go for the temple!

He did get his hips into the shot tho.

Hopefully it'll appear.

Halloween at work. Wearing the full faceplate, would replace with bargrill for most fighting.

Missing for tournament - cased greaves instead of gutter greaves. Missing 'in general' - voiders and sabatons.

Happy New Year!

Anton

Amen. A wise man knows his limitations. I do not have the talent and patience to do what these artisans do. I am thankful they exist to make all of us look better and feel better about our kits.

How did you get Connor McGregor away from MMA to pose for these pics?

Anton

Out of what may be inappropriate curiosity... you suffered a traumatic brain injury at Pennsic severe enough to knock you out of fighting? What happened if I may ask?

Anton

Anton

I have an open order too... he hasn't been on this site in 4 months.

Even though they're 1/2 way across the world I've done business with a couple of the Ukrainian armorers and haven't had an issue. TBH I've had less issues with them than I have with American folks.

1. What is your current helmet padding setup? Oregon Aero helmet padding - 3/4" option 2. What have you used previously? Open and closed cell foam 3. What do you as a fighter feel is best? For someone who isn't instructed to 'not take boxing level hits to the head' I think closed cell is fine. 4. Ha...

Anton

IMO suck it up and pay shipping. A few extra bucks is worth getting what you wanted in the first place.

Anton

Anton

Received my bag today and it's well worth the price. Plenty of room for the helm and is made out of sturdy material. 5 stars for both product and the interaction with Dougal.

As a non-expert it would make sense that an expensive piece of metal in a high-humidity area would be covered as a rust-prevention idea.

Age of Craft had a couple nice ones. Do a search, in the last 3-4 months there were quite a few Ukranian guys making them.

Nice looking work. How long would you expect a painted tabard to last in heavy SCA combat?

Anton

Anton

Is the fauld really 15 pounds as on Armstreets' site? Looks nice but damn that's heavy.

Anton

Anton

What were you looking to sell it for?

Anton

How did this drama get into an Anshelm thread? Isn't there a separate thread for this drama? You two should go to your own thread or PMs or something, stop hijacking other threads with unrelated issues.

Anton

Anton

Are you making these or is this a one-time sale?

Anton

Anton

Where'd you pick up the other cote? The one the plaque belt is on?

Anton

Anton

This sort of brig is for late 1400s to mid 1500s (roughly)? I'm not clear about the evolution of CoP to Brigs and the appropriate time periods... any help from the peanut gallery?

Windrose armory made the one I use.
