Re: XL Klapvisor (25" head) - free shipping - Back for Sale
OK, I understand. It's just that in mild steel, 12 is doable, 14 is worrisome. Thanks.
ETA: It it's ACTUALLY 14 in places, that's one thing, it's just that if you start with 14, it starts becoming 16 in places, or worse.

Since Aethelmearc is being invaded on both fronts, do we get to line up on both sides with Aethelmearc in the middle?

I'm particularly interested in Dwarves, but also in the Empire or anything that's a particularly good deal.
Thanks.

That type of garment is VERY thin in the ground before the year 1400. If that date is important to you as a cutoff, I would avoid that type of garment.

You typically don't see the braies hanging out so much. Sure, if someone's hanging from the gallows, knocked ...

I still get called Lucius occasionally, but that doesn't bother me at all. We have a duke in our kingdom w...

It's been two months. At the very least, Ulfr has been floated a free loan for that time. That assumes that Ulfr ships it today, which is...unlikely. So to make Ulfr not a thief, he should have to pay for that loan, on top of the sword, agreed to be worth $120. Now, Ulfr doesn't make his location en...
