New maille type on the market

<< < (3/6) > >>

Sir Ulrich:
He's located in India and heres the site to his maille www.romanhandicraft.com I dont think he has it listed yet because it's new, but i'm pretty sure he'll have more info on it later. Would be nice to see this sold on KOA I think I could send that site link to him see if he can, would be a good way to distribute it.

I misread it the top one IS 9MM 16 gauge the middle one is 16 gauge 8MM and the bottom one is again 9mm 16 gauge.

Lord Dane:
He's not NEW Sir Ulrich. I ordered my blackened maille from him for my new kit. He was under another company name then but the product is the same. I'll post pics.

B. Patricius:
The round ring looks thick in width and small in the inner diameter, and there are a couple of things that can do that.  I'm thinking that round ring one may also be the zoom magnifying it, making it appear a thicker gauge.  Another option is it all depends on how he hits it with his hammer on the anvil.  If they are 16g 8mm, they're the same as mine and look it too with some of mine that I squish bit time.  Unfortunately I can't seem to log into my flickr, but as soon as I can, I'll post up some of my pics, including not pretty ones I didn't share yet, to have for comparison.

Sir Ulrich:
Yeah, I think it was with the inner diameter being 9MM instead of the OUTER one, maybe thats why the rings look big. Personally I prefer smaller ringed maille, I did give the guy Icefalcon's and Kult of Athena's contact info to sell it via them possibly. Also made a post on my armory, but people there were overly critical and half the topic got moderated and his account deleted. Kinda pissed me off honestly, cause we got to ENCOURAGE this guy not discourage him.
Lord Dane I'd like to see those pics of the maille if you got them.

Ian:
Yeah, I'm very sorry that happened on MyArmoury.  I tried to jump in and help people to encourage him, but any time anyone posts about maille on MyArmoury, a certain guy almost always jumps in and immediately starts disparaging everything and saying how it's all junk because it's not exactly like the historical stuff, blah blah blah, and it usually ends like it did there.
