For Sale: MercTailor plackart breastplate w/strapping

[Knight Sir James]

I have for sale a MercTailor plackart breastplate with full strapping. There is a lower strap that goes directly behind the back, and two straps come up from there to attach to the point at the front top of the breastplate - I suggest wearing them in an "X", as was common with 14th century breastplates that had no backplate.







It was part of a kit I bought earlier this year, and previously had faulds & tassets. I removed the faulds and tassets and attached them directly to a breastplate, and no longer need the plackart. It would be good for SCA combat (16 gauge AFAIK - possibly 14? but I think 16). It would also be good for basic protection for WMA sparring, without any restriction on your upper body.

I would like to get $100 shipped.

Size?

[Knight Sir James]

Size?

Oops, that would be important.

24" across at the top of the flare
25" across at the spot right under the armpits

13" high from peak to center of the bottom of the flare
11" high from peak to the crease where the flare begins

Let me know if any other measurements are needed.

I want it, if Fergus hasn't claimed dibs. What will shipping be to 16823? If Fergus doesn't have implied dibs, that is. I don't want to step on toes.

Fergus are you still interested? Not sure how to do dibs since I didn't post sizing info...

[FergusFetz]

All his no implied dibs.
