some current projects

Post by Ken Zicker »

Greetings all here are some things I'm working on. The Bascinet is 14ga stainless just finished for one of our local guys, the german mitten gauntlets are 18ga s.s. with some modifications made from the last set I made, mainly in the cuff area. The pauldrons are 1050 spring steel, with some punch and file work, with the top lame edge rolled to the outside, thanks Patrick for your pic's and inspiration,

Yeah, I kinda like the punch work on the pauldrons and the unusual tips on the arm lames.
