They stay pretty well actually, the holsters are tapered and are a pretty tight fit, I usually prefer measurements of the gun barrels if possible to insure the perfect fit and if you prefer I can add ties to the top of each holster for a little extra insurance that these babies don't go anywhere. I can't say it isn't a little heavy and cumbersome but that's a huge arsenal to be carrying across your chest, If Blackbeard really carried 6 pistols and a sword that way he must have had a mighty big torso. So, I wouldn't reccommend running a marathon in this but for the look and functionality it is pretty effective.

Ok, I got the pictures and just updated our website with the new Baldric Page Here are the pictures I promised & yes I can make one to sell, see the website or PM me for details. There are a couple more pictures on the website.

Hey Silent, We made a custom one of these based on the baldric worn in the National Geographic Blackbeard Documentary... I don't have the pictures of it on me but I will post it here later.

Welcome aboard Cap'n H! Good to see you here too! Look forward to some more local pirating with you and yer crew!!!

There are a few different types available at Jas Townsend from the 15th to 19th Century.

I just joined. Here I am pyrate.renspace.com

Here I am: www.myspace.com/pyrates Haven't looked at renspace yet.

Here are some decent Rope Sandles, you can remove the tag. I wear these and love them, they look great, but does anyone know how historically accurate they are? Here is another site but they are a lot more expensive.

I like both, Chai with a shot of Espresso is my favorite... If ye make it to St. Louis for the Pirate Festival or Renaissance Festival, say hello to us at Arrbucks, "Coffees & Teas From The Seven Seas" and mention you're from the pub. (shameless plug, I know but it was a thread about coffee and tea!).

I'm so jealous!! Any chance of getting ahold of a similar baldric or buckles?

Very nice! Is the baldric based on Barbossa's? The hardware looks similar.

Here is a new website for a fellow pirate craftsman you may not be aware of: Captain Goldtooth Ron (Captain Goldtooth) is truly a master at his craft. He has made these wonderful piratical mugs, steins and goblets for many years but you can now find him online. I've picked up several over the past 15 years at his KC Renaissance Festival shop and just wanted to share his work with you all. The website is pretty nice and has a lot of fun piratical tidbits of humor and such.

Saw that they have added a screening at PyrateCon. Can't wait!

If only I were in California

I rent my house so I can't build anything too elaborate but my pirate bar consists of a bar made of old whiskey casks, a couple of boat shelves with some pirate swag, and various Jolly Rogers on the ceiling. Also found a great old barrel shaped shelf for glassware. The historical stuff pictured in Blackjohn's forum is great. If you ever catch the MTV show Viva La Bam, in one of the older episodes they turn the basement into a pirate bar. My personal favorite part is the stone fireplace with skulls inlaid into the mantle.

Fun indeed, "what ARRR you doing?"

We enjoyed ourselves at the KC AWE Trailer Premiere last night... Tonight when it goes live you can also watch the trailer HERE and even get code to put it on your own website or myspace page.

I have Pirate/Belly Dancer friends as well & we lovingly call them Gyrates (Gypsy-Pirates)...

I'm with you all the way Capn William. Can't wait for the trip south. How about a roll call? Who else is attending?

Very nice stuff! Will you be selling your wares at PyrateCon?

Thanks Capn Jake, we plan to be at the summer festival as well with more iced drinks. Look forward to seeing you guys again. Great show!

2007 Dates are confirmed, three weekends as mentioned before & it's now on the calendar: September 15, 16, 22, 23, 29, & 30 Though it is still a little ways off, come visit us at Pyrate Leatherworx and sip a cup of Arrrbucks Coffee. See The Official Site for more info

Here is me crew's colors (The Royal Mayhem), in the background: And a bit closer view so you can see our seamstress' lovely hand stitching: You can see our company's colors (our logo) in my avatar.

Can't wait to meet many of you at this event! We plan to vend there as well. According to an email from No Quarter Given, Extras & Actors from POTC will be in attendance as well as the aforementioned activities. Looks like it is shaping up to be a big event.

Here are a couple of Murals I did on cabinets at the KC Renaissance Festival:
