I'm posting for a friend -

He is looking to commission a set of muscled greaves, suitable for a Roman Gladiator type, in brass (actual brass). They need to be top quality, and custom fit. This is for SCA.

Thanks, Lu-shan

Sasuke makes nic greeves I'll post hi site and e-mail tonight.

Albion has a bunch of gladiator stuff, including greaves, as I recall.

Here are some pictures of some aluminum greaves I made. I see no reason why I coldn't make some out of brass, I can make the muscles more pronounced as well. I would like to know what "flavor" of brass he wants though. Like cartridge or whatever.

I have stainless muscular greeves by sasuke they are very nice and he has great service and turn around, oh and did I mention excellent workmanship.
A true artisian in the making.

Sasukes work is HIGHLY recommended.

Here are the set of stainless I did for The Lost Scott. I think they show more of the dramatic muscled look your friend may want.

Sorry if I am posting too many pictures here.

You can never post enough pictures.
Did I mention Never.

Thanks guys, I'll bring the information to him.

Sasuke, about how much do you get for these greaves?

Lu-shan

I charge $80 for the stainless. I can't really give a price on the brass until I get some metal prices from my supplier.
