I have always tried to be as close as possible to the historical. Here are examples of my work. I've also included the works of several other Master Armourers, both contemporary and medieval.

Please click this image to see examples of authentic armor. The first images are of gauntlets from the Battle of Wisby finds.

I have come to realize that once the piece leaves my hand, it is no longer mine. Armor gets used up being beaten upon every week. I try to teach that to those who would buy a piece from me, and I let them know that things will not always be fixed if it is broken in normal use. So, I have learned to take pride in the making of the piece, and take pictures of anything that leaves the shop. I know that what I make is a particular type of usable art. Only the princely armours in period were meant to be so, but the every day harness had the lines and the grace that I find so inspiring.

I am very proud of my lineage. My two masters, Sir Valerius Peancalvus and Master Will of Wiltshire were from the line of Knut Oststrum. I have put together a lineage, which now lists 10 laurels in Armouring. Click this picture to see the lineage.

As I have studied Chivalry, I have run across several studies on the subject. I will post them here for anyone interested.
