Sir Wolf:
http://www.wintertreecrafts.com/CoP.html  here is another COP dealer to add to that list I sent you on New Years

Sir Gerard de Rodes:
Sir Edward,
I take it that from Sir Wolfs post that you are after a Coat of Plates.
During my search for COPs I have chanced upon a couple of links that may interest you.

These are very nice if not a little pricey;

There are a couple of sellers on E-bay that might be worth a look;

If you don`t mind me asking, are you after a COP for re-enacting a specific period?

Hope you find these usefull.

Sir Edward:

Hi there! Thanks for the links! I'll certainly look those over as I consider some options. Yes, I'm aiming for about 1280-1320, roughly, for this kit below:



I'm located in the US, so shipping and exchange rates have to be considered with regards to European armourers.

Sir Matthew:
Sir Ed,
    I am working on a Teutonic theme aimed for 1330-1350.  I'm planning mail with banded armor worn over it on the legs, arms and chest/back.  I'm working with Red Falcon Armoury on the mail and banded armor.  Good luck on the coat of plates.

Sir Gerard de Rodes:
Sir Ed,
For that period you are definitely looking for something not later than a Wisby style COP aren`t you.  ;)

These are much the same as the ones that we use at the moment. I can highly recommend them as a light, flexible but very effective body armour.  ;D

Here is a picture of Sir David de Jarponville being helped into his by his good lady wife, lady Louise
