I am looking for a late 14th Century style breastplate and backplate in spring steel or titanium.

Anyone know who is making them and taking orders!

Thanks,

John Gruber is your man for a 1050 spring steel breastplate without question. The Churburg BP he made is just beautiful.

I would suggest emailing him at jouster616@hotmail.com

Hope this helps,
Karl

Thanks for the kind words karl.....
here's a pic of our Churburg we built for Felix..

Duke Aleric did alot of the shaping on this one. I did the final stuff, tweaking, rolling, just over all keeping the 'flow' factor . The stop rib was added the following day.

Gruber check your email (die Hotmail).

Try Patrick Thaden as well. Check out his recent armourcake. Unfortunatly not mine
