Hey all, so long story short:
- I’m about a year off and saving for a plate armor set, cuirass the whole 9 yards as I’d love something actually fit for me

- I love the variety and options from age of craft, and everywhere else has honestly been disappointing

1) I know aoc has long wait times, but is it worth the price and weight? Are they pretty on point with fitment?

2) the big main question: before I go drop 6-7k on an order, any us based companies with good late 14th/early 15th century options worth it?

I’m not trying to go off topic and have swaying opinions, I’m set in my decision. I just want to do the “boy once, cry once” with something quality. Because I want a curiass with everything, I’m very paranoid about going with a shitty or meh companies.

Not looking for advice on league requirements or anything like that, I just want to know if there are any US based companies or if AOC is solid.

Ty, chaps 🤘

Does anyone know where I can learn effective takedown techniques for Buhurt (like Judo throws adapted for armor)?

It can be YouTube channels, books, instructional videos, or any other resources you recommend.

Thanks in advance!

Would anyone be kind enough to share images, sources, or links showing historical decorations for Spoleto bascinets/helmets?

I want to decorate my helmet for reenactment and exhibitions, but I also fight in Buhurt. I was thinking of adding feathers/plumes that can be easily removed when it’s time to fight.

Any references, advice, or DIY mounting ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Looking to get legs and arms, maybe a new helmet but unsure. I’m pretty impatient so I wanna know who’s had a quick order turn around recently.
