Someone asked me where to buy PC stuff and darned if I could give her a direct answer. So I plowed through the threads here looking for a list of vendors and came up with a bunch. Note that I am not including fabric vendors or anything related to sewing - methinks that really belongs in the new forums in Pyrate Craft now. General Black Hand Trading Company - Consortium of craftsmen who make pirate and nautical items such as hats, tools, ditty bags, etc. Fall Creek Suttlery - focused on Civil War period G Gedney Godwin - an 18th C.

Over the years there have been many contributions to this topic, proving that one can create an all original design with a little effort and the help of others. In the interest of making it easier search through the designs posted here, I offer a cross section of designs as a sort of flag registry. I'll keep adding flags to this first post, so that people can see what's out there in the pirate community. I started the topic years ago with my own design I refer to as the 'crossed pistols'. This was for my own fictional character 'Redwake'. Capn Enigma Captain Galvin St. Paul Half Moon Marauders Captain Alva Long Tom's two flags Siren Song Sheppe…

OK... we have a thread in Rabble Rousing about posting a picture of you in your garb..... but now we are discussing other garb subjects..... Cheeky Actress's stays look great.... and we have been discussing many aspect of them..... but You in your Garb should be for posting pictures of...... well... You in your garb.... not other (garb) stuff) So I figured we needed a thread just for how you made parts or all of your garb.... AND FOR BOTH THE HOLOLYWOOD AND AUTHENTIC PYRATES...... if it is nessicary for another thread for authentic pyrate garb.... heck... we can do that in Twill..... I figure that period stuff is good information for Hollywood Pyrates... and sewin…

I just plundered what is to become our parade float on Ebay for a whopping $27.51 for the hull you see below and the trailer! You'll have to use your imagination here quite a bit, but picture this humble little wreck below painted black with red trim, and the guild name on the back, painters canvas sails on a PVC mast, remove the winshield, strip the inside down, add a poop deck with a railing to the back.... It's gonna be quite a project to convert it, but it should be fun. If anyone has any suggestions I could use lots of ideas and advice!!

Check it out all! # 4923... it's meant to look Sparrowish... but, after looking at the pattern & a couple reviews from a PotC Costuming chat list... it's a grand buy! Pretty close to 18th c pattern cuts, even looks like a fall front breeches! Yes.. BREECHES! Not some silly drawn string pants or something that is not really all that period. I'd imagine that you can make it also fly front. Pattern includes a frock coat, waist coat, shirt, breeches & cravat. Available for adults & kids.

For those who are in the market for shoes, both Practical Goose and Loyalist Arms are close to offering us a period shoe. I've actually held the Practical Goose prototype in my hand. Loyalist has promised to send me pics as soon as they have theirs. So, if you are in the market for shoes, keep saving those pennies. You've waited this long. Now the wait is almost over.

I was looking for a fairly good pirate style cutlass to use at reinactments. I have found several very cheap pieces that will not stand up to even stage combat. I also found a few somewhat expensive pieces that will. ie.... museam, replica... I was hopeing that mabye someone knows where I can get a fairly good blade, that will withstand the rigors of stage fighting on a beach, for a fairly good price. Thanks... The Capt.

Not to be confused with arse and all. Here are a few of my happy acquisitions. My bearded axe made by a man named Wolf. I carved the knotwork in a rough celtic style to give the axe an overall antiqued appearance. Here is a detail of the same piece. These are two of 8 knives that I have acquired from my friend Big Mike. The smaller "Trade Knife" is my most recent addition. Drat I spelled arsenal wrong.

Rough Guide for those interested in Pirate Re-enacting First off, if you can sew… you can make your own clothes. But first you need a pattern. There are some basic patterns on my site Gentlemen of Fortune You just need to decide what you want to make them out of (hemp, linen, fustian, silk, wool) get the patterns and start sewing. If you have money to spend, you can find folks to make the stuff for you. The problem here is that for our period, I don't think that there is anyplace (or any website) where you can go and, with a few clicks, get your early 18th (or late 17th) century pirate stuff. Most folks that I know that make correct stuff do it in addition to t…

First .... lets kep the hats in this section. There is no need for the administrator to start a new section. On that I am in agreement with you Stynky Second.... When applying oil to leather. Specifically minks oil or other made for leather oil, I was speaking of how the oil will help soften the leather enough to make it easier to work with. Lastly and for the final time... The hat I am refering to in Chivalry Sports.... renstore.com..... Is listed and described as a FELT hat that runs $29.95. It is listed as FELT and can be shaped or cut down to the brim size and shape that you may like. This is the hat I bought and used. It works well and is very easy to take care of…

Okay, yes I've seen SCA Boots. And yes, I looked for a similiar posting in Plunder, to no avail. I was sure I'd seen a post before, but here goes, I've got $$ coming back from Uncle Sam, and after I spoil myself with a new computer (imac g5 it's sooo sweet), anyways I need a pair of boots. Where would you scurvy dogs suggest I go?

Ahoy Mates! I am thinking of buying a new cutlass and wondered if you historical types could point me in the direction of the best and most authentic commercially available replica of a cutlass on the market today? I would prefer it to be a functional replica, not a wall hanger made with cast metal parts. I have found one on the internet, referred to on several sites as a "rustic pirate's cutlass", and so far it is closest to fitting my bill, but I thought you all might know of somewhere else that had one a bit better. I like the plain, no-nonsense, aged and worn look of this cutlass. To my mind it comes closer to the type of sword a common pirate would have had. Than…

OK, we all need BUTTONS! But the fact of the matter is, buttons are expensive! Especially when you require them in the quantities we are talking about. And that is after you have paid for your linen, wool, hemp, braid, shoes, hat, belt, weapons ~ really, buttons are the last thing many of us want to sink a lot of money into. But a good button makes a difference. What would you say to a good looking 1 piece cast metal button (see below pic, buttons on the left), priced at a mere $0.25 each? These buttons are located at a factory in Italy, and I am considering puchasing a wholesale lot, but will have more buttons than I need ~ Interested persons should contact me directl…

Just got me new cutlass from Loyalist Arms & Repairs of Canada and I can recommend her without reservation. She's the "17th/18th Century Dutch Cutlass," and while I don't know the true provenance I think she's a fine munition grade generic cutlass for anytime from 1650-1860s. The hilt is a graceful half-basket connected to the pommel-cap. The grip seems to be hardwood. Gaurd and grip are covered with a heavy coat of dull-black paint, an excellent idea for sea service. A magnet test proves that the guard and pommel are steel. Blade is about 26" and slightly curved, with a broad fuller 3/4s its length with a narrow fuller along the top of the broad one. The tip is spea…

I have contacted a shoe manufacturer (in Canada) who can make a Straight lasted early 18th Century shoe. His claim is that he can make a Sarah Juniper Shoe at a C&D Jarnagin price. If you would like to see some shoes from these makers, go HERE These shoes would be mostly machine stitched but vegetable tan leather and all the correct details for the period. Cost would be $135 (without buckles) and would be paid half upfront and half at delivery. we would need 30 orders to move ahead.... anyone interested? GoF
