Not sure if these will go with Viking or not, however I have a pair and like them. I wear a pair of padded bicycle under them to cushion the impact. I do have plans to rivet metal strips to them to aid in protection, but I never seem to get around to it.

Or Nightshade Leather.....they have a Facebook page.

Hi!
Welcome to the site!
So...to make good recommendations, we need more info...like what group are you with? SCA, Dagorheir, HEMA, etc...
That way our collective could give better recommendations.
OH>...and what's your budget?
I know of some sweet $1000.00 gauntlets, but they are definitely not Nordic...

Sir Thorfinn: Trooperwill - we'd all love to help. My suggestion is to start posts with 3-4 swords at a time so the forum can give you our best guess, as the prices can be a moving target. Just my .02 Dec 4, 2024 15:01:52 GMT

mrstabby: Hello, welcome even under these sad circumstances. Maybe put out a thread in the Renaissance/Military subsection. Nov 28, 2024 6:52:12 GMT *

trooperwill: I have just been appointed conservator and Guardian for Dave Kelly and have no experience or knowledge of swords. I would appreciate any assistance that folks who know Dave or have visited with him and seen his collection could give me. need appraisal Nov 28, 2024 0:05:16 GMT

mrstabby: Been thinking the same - but the person that set up the page might not be there anymore and old code gets messy when not maintained. Might be a "repair subscriptions, destroy function X, repair X, destroy Y" situation by now - would mean a total overhaul. Nov 18, 2024 7:29:27 GMT

choseychas: Huh. Is there no fix on our side then? Or is it that you need to contact an admin since the auto system is down? Nov 18, 2024 3:58:50 GMT

eastman: problems with the forum software are the cause, not a goal to limit the club. There is an error with the software that messes up activities that require the sending of email. Nov 18, 2024 3:57:36 GMT

choseychas: That's what I figured, wasn't sure if it had become a limited club where you have to know someone to get in or what was going on. Nov 18, 2024 2:39:40 GMT

eastman: that situation has been constant at MyArmoury for the last 2-3 years Nov 18, 2024 0:32:06 GMT

choseychas: Anyone have any info on MyArmoury registration? Been wanting to make an account for a year or more (can't remember at this point) but every time I've checked they've halted registrations. Nov 17, 2024 21:55:36 GMT

alinkinthechain: I also do love Boston. I've traveled a bit and nothing feels as wonderful as that city to me. I'm lucky to live nearby Nov 12, 2024 15:28:16 GMT

txhighlander: Boston might be my fav. So much history, and clean! and great food. New York was cool for a day to see iconic landmarks Nov 7, 2024 17:00:22 GMT
