Bosun Carmina Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 I have a mate on another board who has had no luck locating a baldric supplier in the UK. Does anyone know of any? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 You could direct your friend to the forums at livinghistory.co.uk, they'd get a better answer there I expect.

Tall Paul Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 Without getting into the whole Pirate/Baldrick authenticity debate, (and if you are looking for Jack Sparrow kit this shouldn't be a problem,) I think that sone of the best UK Re-enactmwnt baldricks are Those made by Two J's, as seen at t5his website. I bought several period correct buckles from them at this years Original Re-enactors Market. Hightower Crafts make good kit for the Live astion roleplay market. However, whilst looking at their site, In the Shoes section, I couldn't help but notice these so-called 17th Century shoes With a bit of work on the latchets, and a correct bukle, I think that these don't look half bad, especially at £65 a pair.

Zephaniah W Nash Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Shipping, customs, etc. may make this more trouble than it's worth, but my in-laws live in the UK and do business on both sides of the pond. I could see if they'd be willing to take care of the actual financial part of things (transferring money from someone to us to avoid the exchange taxes). If you can't find anything over there, but like something over here, likely we could work out a deal where we'd send to you, you'd send money to them that they would send to us, etc. Plus, of course, I've still got a couple of hand-made leather baldrics available -- shameless self-plug, I know. But apart from that, if just nothing you can find there will suit, send me a PM and we'll see if something can be worked out, if you can find something online from a US company that would suit you...
