My day-to-day length for a Spatha would be about 32" and I would ad a thrusting tip to it. The width would be 1 3/8" with shaved sides. The blade weighs 3lbs completely ready to fight (Tip, tape and etc.) with the balance point 10" up from the pommel point and my hand grip is at the ...

I am looking for some one to make an SCA fighting sword in the fashion of a Gladius and Spatha...specifically the Crossguard/Grip/Pommel. I would like the blade shaved to specifications of SCA AnTir kingdom standards. I was thinking the rattan could be shaved in the grip pattern of the "Pompei&...

Any chance i can talk you out of buying those

I actually had to forego the Lorica and purchase the greaves..so I guess that means that Tatsuo Okami is up next for the Lorica. Sorry Garreth....

Yes it's still available. I am asking $120 for ...

Scorpus

No offense meant but how big do the knees need to be...I have a set that could go very cheap but they are a bit on the larger size.

Scorpus

Thank you.

I have this in the armor section trying to find out who made it (Armorers stamp below) This is replica helm is not intended for SCA use, but might be very good for live steel use. I think it's only a 16 guage top which is unfortunate.... still would be a nice mantle piece or for LARP use. Let's talk...

Scorpus

Argh!!!!!! I want them both but I need to sell a kidney first.....hmmm must look at finances! I am desperately looking to sell some of my own stuff to get the very Greek things your selling. Are you wanting anything more than the Crusader items listed? I have other items.

Hi folks....I bought this replica helm about 16 years ago in a Antique store in Kalama Washington. I was just buying armor at that time and thought it would be cool. Anyways it has an armorers stamp on it and I was wondering if any of you knew who the mark belongs to. Here is both a picture of the h...

Scorpus

Give me a day and I will get you a pic...It doesn't have the lip that the aspis does, I was going to rivet tabs aroud the rim and rivet a wood or aluminum lip to give it the right form and add about 4" or so. Cover the whole thing in canvas and paint away, I cant spend 300 or better for a corr...

Take a good look at your kingdom and local weapons regs before you spend money on a hard rubber spear tip. If I'm not mistaken I think the only legal tips are the foam ones already posted. Edward, per the "ABC" ..... C. Two-Handed Weapons: Weapons which may be used with one or two hands s...

Holy crap batman!

Scorpus

I should be more precise...I am looking for shaped spear head....hard rubber or some SCA legal striking/thursting laminate.

Scorpus

I am in the process of trying to put together a Hoplite war kit that is decent in appearance.

Does any one make a good Greek round sheild?

Does any one make a good hard rubber spear head in the same fashion?

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

Also my PM's were answered. Thank you.

Scorpus

If I wasn't saving my pennies for Gulf I would get this helm. I like the look and it does seem very solid. The tinned look is just to cool. Do you have any idea what it is made out of and the gauges of the steel are? Just curious. Aedinius It is 14gauge mild through and through.....I had it tinned ...

In order for me to get a helm I would need twice that I would think....give or take a few $$
Thats the main reason I am looking to trade. It's a little old but it is very solid.

Scorpus

PM's answered.

I neglected to mention that cash offers for my helm would be considered also. Thank you.
