  1. Sure there are pictures on my website that show the blade shape. You can also check out the build thread that I did on the piece over at the bladesmith forum. http://forums.dfoggknives.com/index.php?showtopic=15833&st=0 Thanks for looking! This was a favorite of mine too.
  2. This is a recent custom that is available through Legacy Forge at the Scarborough Ren Fest in Texas. The blade is 29 layers and clamshell/thumbring is 13 layers I think. The handle is antler. The hilt is iron. The buttcap is wrought iron and the pommel nut is also iron. All the pieces were hand forged to shape. We are already making the next in this series. The damascus clamshell has quickly become a favorite. For more pictures please visit http://baltimoreknife.com/frenchhanger.htm
  3. As mentioned by several people, you could go with a swept hilt rapier or a transitional rapier with an arming blade. Darkwood is a good place to find such items. I also make a ton of rapiers and complex hilted weapons. There are quite a few good options. If I were to get intot hat period agian, I would go with a massive blade mounted in a swept hilt just for style!
  4. So many grand nominations so far. Oderless and Maddogge are at the top of my lists. There are just a ton of worthy pirates that make port here at the pub.
  5. Stuff looks nice. If you ever need a sword or two. I would love to trade. Just cash in and cash out for me this time of year so even though I am making a ton of stuff, I dont have much in my pockets.
  6. I still cant believe that Papa just climed up the rigging on the bounty to take thsoe overhead shots. Amazing!
  7. The blade is 21" I believe. Doesnt have a scabbard. It is priced at $375.00
  8. I always wanted to donate something in the name of the devil! I had other ideas of the meaning of that, but this will do :) Speak up Dozen! What charity is first?
  9. What are you all worried about a $17 flask for when this thief stole my skull ring! I demand justice!
  10. Any chance you can let me know when they're available? I have one right now just like this but with a hickery handle.
  11. Here I am at Fells Point aboard the Bounty dressed in my kit from Papa Sterling! Old hat from Pyrate Leatherworks. Shame you cant see me new shoes! Sword belt from POD. Gun is the one I am working on in Cascabels section of the forum. Rings by me. Necklace is hand hammer formed silver and gold and was a gift from Talderoy!
  12. As always I have a ton of pictures to sort and no time to do it. I did steal a great shot from Kendra of Stynky... Lord Swatton's closet cabin boy are we? More coming...
  13. Papa...any word yet on the bounty for capturing the Pirate of the year? Not sure you noticed but I had my pistol behind his back and his hands were in irons!
  14. So So So tired. Still have one more day of guests. Super thanks to the Dozen and to our hosts. Thanks to the crews of the Bounty and the Pride. Much Much Much more later.
  15. Mad Jack I am not sure who you are, but no worries mate. You are far to worried. Thats what us pirates do...we complain about things and gripe on forums. Don't read into it anymore then that. Duncan cleared things up and I think the event will be one for the ages. All ages at that! Cant wait! Besides, most of the people complaining aren't coming anyway. The Gang will all discuss and decide on where the Devils Dozen will land next year and we will take all of what has been said into the decision. I think we all felt that Fells Point was the right place to start this tradition and we always invisioned it as a traveling event.
  16. Thanks for the heads up Bright. We will surely look into it. There are still a few otehr locations being looked at. All sound great.
  17. As far as I know, there is now extra room for any more tents. Best bet it bunking with someone.
  18. Oh! didnt mention. Any condition is fine. We prefer firing, but are willing to put some work into restoring a pair. Doesnt have to be a matched set either. If you have only one then let me know aswell.
  19. My co-worker john who has been the guy making our 17th cent clothes for years is no wanting to get into pyracy. Took me a few years but he will be coming with me to some shows here and there. His first will be Fells Point... Anyway, he asked me if I could find someone to trade us a sword or pair of swords or whatever for a pair of small pistols. Flintlocks that is. He is in need of some other stuff too but at least his priorities are in order. So if there is anyone out there witha pair of working flintlocks that needs some custom metal working done, let me know. We will more then match value on a trade.
  20. Hve a great one my friend from Sarah and I!
