Ed's Mid 14th C. kit

<< < (5/46) > >>

Sir Edward:

It's a shame CAS/Hanwei's GDFB mail doesn't include stainless steel and wedge riveted flat links in the same sets...

Tempting though.

The full-length hauberk would work great for the early 14th kit, but for the late 14th, think a Haubergeon would be more appropriate?

Sir Wolf:
i think it's all in how ya want it. get both ;)  full sleeves would be better for earlier stuff which shorter sleeves are better for later. but then again, shorter sleeves you can do like way earlier like viking etc hahhaha

Sir Wolf:

Yah, I was talking to my girlfriend last night about this stuff. I mentioned I might need two sets of riveted mail, in stainless (low maintenance)... that's when she got quiet and I could practically hear her eyes rolling. Hah. I think I need to get more convincing. I mean, with enough pieces of armor, it can be modular and make a variety of kits within a span of a century or three. :)

Not yet. I haven't had much chance to look much over yet.

Sir Wolf:
