  4. Well now in all tha exitment i furgot to stand an introduce me'self. and notin that the brouge gets the better a me i tink i shall speak further a bit moor playn like. Well, I am known by many as Asolfr Mikill Vikarsson, a Lord in the SCA (not much but tis a title) and a longtime Crewman upon the great K.M.A. Defiant lead by the excellent Captain Scott. who was forced to sail on without us many months ago. the day i found out he had left us i picked us a leather welding apron tor it apart and began to draw. after many hours and a lot of time with a quill and ink (yes real one) i had finished something i had always wanted to make for him, a map o the Caribbean, tis the one displayed proudly on my site. As an artist i have always been drawn to draw sculpt, weld, carve and more. and the responce i had to Cptn Scotts map pushed me to begin making them for sale, not only that but it incouraged me to once again stand as a merchant, to bring what i could make, and that i could find to sell at events, why ...so i could go to events, before Cptn Scott Passed i had all but stopped playing after so many years i had lost my love for the fun of it, only attending a few main events each year. Now as a seller, i have a reason to be there, i have a purpose again. i attend much more and am looking to begin some of the regular pirate festivals in california. i've been selling for ten years or so but had fallen into the crag of selling only what you buy from vendors, and it took my heart out of it. But now i'm selling my maps, i do leatherwork, i sell guns which i love, The garb sellers i know and they or their familys make the garb i purchase for resale, my seamstresses are local and will do whatever i have need of, which has been cloaks but i have asked them to get me pricing on on a pirates half jacket many option going to be there. I sell swords i addmittedly get from a big exporter but that makes them cheapenough to make mony while having a decent sale. I really a simple fellow, grew up loving pirates, dad made me a real metal sword when i was 5 (not sharp) and showed me his cutlass styled matchette from hawaii while he roused my imagination with stories that usually started "ya kno when i was a pirate...", that blade is in its stand not 5 ft from me as i write this. and of course my 4yr old girl is as she puts it "NO, NO, i am a PIRATE Princess daddy" as she stands there in her nice little Disney princess dress with her wood cutlass in her belt, standing in the mess of gold coins, cosum jewlery, and her pirate maps spilling from her wood pirate chest all over my living room floor. i am also a carded SCA rapier fighter, and the local Baronies Chatelain (new-comers liason), the barony of Rivenoak (butte and glenn counties), Chico (CSU), bout a hour an a half north a sacramento. well thats all for now I hope my introduction has not bored you, if you need a map, a gun, some treasure or a bit a garb then feel free to e-mail me and tell me what ya need
  5. Ahh Tis a fine pieceO' work Lass, tis nice enough to try it out on one a me real ones, and for those were we cant or shant carry a brace a sure firin weapons, my true irons can be got with not a chance of shot escapin, eye non-firin for those places who don want it. And wit my deals a showin ther heads, ye kin buy 2 a the same - one fer showin and one fer blowin'then ye can always carry yer piece, and always have to same kit
  6. That is a serious question, so i'll drop the brouge. I sell many things, swords, garb, hand-made leather maps, leatherwork, cannons (yes), and much more. so naturally i don't invest mush into any one section, the guns i've been dealing with were from a middleman, the same guns from the same supplier, but i paid twice as much or more. it took a long time to track down the company, now ive found them and can get them at a good price, so i can sell them at a good price, i dont belive in charging $600 for a musket, the person wont want to use it there is to much of an investment. but i can sell that gun for half that and still make money , then the person will come back and buy again and again, many people here in the Pub have the same guns im offering and paid way more for them, they're good guns stout and durable meant to be used I've never ordered directly from the supplier before and it would take every last penny from my business to buy them, and that would not leave anything for the other items i have to keep stocked. i wouldn't even be able to buy more leather for the Caribbean maps i'm making (shameless plug) The sales i've been doing are fine but this order is just to much for me to handle, so i figure let all my pirate bretheren out there share in a little plunder, and get some for myself. but it wont last, once the minimum is filled the huge sale ends, i'll still give a good price but not quite THAT good. i'm thinking about doing this same thing every 3-4 months give everyone a chance to get a new toy but those prices as well will be a little more. but not oo much. I'm not the East India Trading Co. I'm just One ship sailing the tides, hopein to stea...find some great wares for my fine Pirate friends
  7. The super sale is over. so i have removed what i can, but i will have another in a couple months. you still may look at and place an order for the various guns at http://wyldewares.com/specials.aspx i will place you on a list until my next order. you can per-pay or make payments until order is upcoming. Good day to ye, may a fair wind follow ye
