Re: For Sale: Kussnach brigandine
This is a nice piece, I do love the buckles...what does 92cm translate to in inches? Nevermind, I'm 184cm tall so half that would equal a 36" chest, way too small for the likes of me. With my gear and padded gamby, my chest swells to 44" (42" normally).
Re: For Sale: Kussnach brigandine, Breastplate, Gauntlets,Go
Thank you very much for your compliment!
Yes, this one is too small for you (36.22inches=92cm)
If you interested, I can make a larger one Kussnach for you, I'll project it exactly for your sizes. If you're interested - please write me in "private messages".
Thank you again!

Re: For Sale: Kussnach brigandine, Breastplate, Gauntlets,Go
That is, bar none, the nicest coat-of-plates I've ever seen. Three inches larger on the chest and you'd have had me.
Re: For Sale: Kussnach brigandine, Breastplate, Gauntlets,Go
I'm very glad, that You liked it! I've sent you a message in "privMsg", You may be interested =)
Re: For Sale: Kussnach brigandine, Breastplate, Gauntlets,Go
Very nice work! Can you post pics of the armor you wear for BotN? And is all your BotN armor hardened spring steel? I may be interested in custom work, depending on price. Fair warning though, I am 6'3" and weigh 290lbs, so my metal and fabric requirements are more extensive than yours .

Re: For Sale: Kussnach brigandine, Breastplate, Gauntlets,Go
A friend of mine might be interested depending on measurements. What are the chest and waist measurements? Or what are your measurements while wearing a gambeson? And how tall are you (to give me an idea how long the cuirass is)?
I saw you mention elsewhere you only use springsteel but you mention this to be regular steel -> mild steel? If spring steel, tempered or not?
Tried to send it in PM as well but the PMs get stuck in the Out-box.

Re: For Sale: Kussnach brigandine, Breastplate, Gauntlets,Go
Hello W Luth, I've sent a message to You in PM.
You can check details about measurments in Your PM.
About steel.
I work now with spring steel only, but this breastplate was made in summer of 2009, on that time I had only mild steel.

Re: For Sale: Kussnach brigandine, Breastplate, Gauntlets,Go
My gauntlets arrived today--much, much more quickly than I had expected. I think the total shipping time was only about a week or so.
This was my first experience buying from the Ukraine. I was very pleased. The transaction went very smoothly.
The gauntlets themselves are things of beauty; there is some fine armour being produced in the Ukraine today. Volodymyr went above and beyond to clean them up and totally refurbish them for me at no extra charge. I must admire the Ukrainian work ethic.
A very favorable experience; buy from this guy, folks.

Re: For Sale: Kussnach brigandine, Breastplate, Gauntlets,Go
Looks good to me - now lets wait for the mail to arrive
Re: For Sale: Kussnach brigandine, Breastplate, Gauntlets,Go
The armour arrived after 1 week, not bad from Ukrain to the Netherlands!
Service: Very good.
Kyka kept in contact very well. He refurbished these 2nd hand items up to the point they might as well have been new. Also the package came with a packing bill that made it clear for customs to send it straight on, in the past customs would sometimes hold it for 4 weeks until they evaluated it's content and worth (for taxes).
Quality: Good.
Price/quality: very good.
- The shape of the bevor was simple but well executed, the chin was well formed and looks to be from 1 piece (99% sure. i'd have to remove the lining to be 100% sure). The lining itself looks to be machine made but hand stitched to the leather and follows the form of the bevor very tightly, very well done.
- The breastplate has 1 flaw, when the central rib was made a small crack is visible but other then that the shape is good and the fluting was well done.
All in all i'm happy
