[Bryn-gwlad] Found some really cool steel and leather

[Sir Lyonel Oliver Grace]

Salut cozyns,

Bingo, fra Eule. Their work looks incredible (Bascinet SLB 4.1 is a 
particular favorite of mine http://www.bestarmour.com/slap4.htm and I like 
their sabatons: http://www.bestarmour.com/detailsparts/nohy54.html), but 
their prices sit on the low end of expensive and the shipping charges are 
outrageous. As a result, I've not yet seen any of their work in person. Lots 
of detailed pics, though.

En Lyonel
