Greetings everyone,

I am looking for a quillion and pommel for my sword, and clamshell gaunts as well since I won't be using a basket hilt. I searched on yahoo, and have only found 1 place with quillions for sale, and that being Badger's Den.

Nothing at all against them, but I was just curious as to any other makers or vendors of quillions/pommels so I can compare prices/styles.

Also, if anyone has an older pair of clamshell gaunts that are still in fighting shape, I would love to talk about how much you would like for em. My hands are medium - large I would think, 8 inches from palm to tip of the middle finger.

Thanks!

Mandrake Armory is the only one that pops into my head.

Badgers Den sells the same ones as Mandrake... maybe a resaler, I don't know. If you get a pommel from Mandrake (wich I recommend highly) get the taping fork to go with it.

Anshelm armouries also sell them, as well as Iron Monger. There used to be another... Otters Den, I think it was, but I don't know if they've got a web site.
