Scabbards

<< < (3/16) > >>

Sir Brian:
Some more preparation work on the slats before soaking and bending them. The Albion Talhoffer blade is particularly challenging first attempt with its diamond cross section. I accidentally split one of the slats while squeezing them together too hard and had to prepare another one.  >:(

Note I got a decent shape on the mouth of the scabbard for the Talhoffer's unique crossguard. :)

Sir James A:
Excellent progress so far, Sir Brian.

Sir Gerard de Rodes:
Nice work so far Sir Brian.

Have you checked these guys out for nice brass and bronze work;

Sir Brian:
Thanks for the excellent link Sir Gerard! They definately have a wider selection of chapes, buckles and strap ends! Awesome!  :)

Thorsteinn:
Will you write up a How-To when done?
