No way! I actually work at that faire at Glen Helen. this weekend i was working and i saw a couple of you guys walking around the site. I was confused at first, you know..the whole time period thing. but i understand now. weirdness...

they cost 150.00, shipping and everything..i got them in about 5 weeks. as for manuverability i think thats a matter of preference.

Today the UPS man delivered my clamshell gauntlets from Armourereric of James River Armoury. These things are nice..the articulation is smooth, they look good and feel good. Came fully gloved and strapped. I highly reccomend anyone looking for good armour to talk with Eric. Many thanks Eric!!

um i think he said four

Hey guys, put another coif on ebay. Yea thats my ugly mug under there. Take a look, Thanks! http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1132243709

Eric is a really cool guy. I ordered a pair of his gauntlets around the end of february and they should be here this weekend i think. Whenever i sent and email about my order he always replied within hours. Ive heard he does nice stuff and from pictures ive seen i dont doubt it. Eric is the bomb.

knipex makes great pairs of mini bolt cutters, they retail for 48.00 but i got mine for 20 on ebay..theyve been with my through 3 hauberks and 4 coifs and they still have that nice snap cut, i think the ringlord sells them on his site also

I actually heard something about magnets being used to treat pain..like a braclet with magnets. Im not too sure, but ive heard from other people that it works, it has something to do with electrical balances in the body and crap like that..i might try it when i actually start my rivited maille.

oops sorry , no strapping , ok didnt see that

hey dane, do you by any chance have a picture of the medium gauntlets you can post, and if you do, do they have strapping thanks for the info!

ok here's the deal i have 175 bucks and i need a pair of maybe medium sized clamshell gaunts w/strapping..i will pay a good price, i need these things before april 28 and i would preferrably like them new...anything would help, thanks alot guys!!

aww bitchin..i hope this price is true, i went to illusion armory and found some mitten gauntlets w/strapping for only 130.00 bucks.i think i may have found what im looking for...

Ok well then here's the real question since they don't sound too great...i have 175 bucks, where can i get a good pair of clamshell or milanese gauntlets with the longer cuff? Also i have to have them before april 28..thanks alot guys!

thanks for the insight guys, i appreciate it

well that link doesnt seem to work... i'll try this one..theyre the milanese gaunts

hey guys, just wanted to ask a quick question. i happened to come across these gauntlets on the web today and im wondering if they look ok..i dont know much about plate, as im just now starting to get into it. well i have the money..im just thinking are they authentic looking and should i get them? ...

hey guys, i wanna ask a quick question. Ive got my 2nd hauberk done and for my 3rd one im thinking about doing it rivited. i know this question has probably been asked before but how tough is spot welded maille vs. rivited, i mean do the rings distort that bad when they are hit? some advice would be...

Hey guys, just wanted to let you know i put up another coif, nothin fancy. Got this one done in a day but my hands let me know what they thought of me the next day!The picture sucks but it happens i guess. http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=554148989&r=0&t=0&showTutorial=0&ed=982...
