Albion Brescia Spadona: Custom Handmade Scabbard 5-24-10
Hello myArmoury community,

I'd like to share a personal project that has been in the works for a while now, and I just finished it up. I didn't make a belt for it, only the straps on the scabbard itself, ready to mate with a belt.

Comments welcome, and thanks for looking!

Wow, that looks great. I like the asymmetry in the chape and how it blends well with the tooling.
Well done! Another one in a long line of beautiful scabbards.

May i ask if there's an opportunity that you might add a Talhoffer to your inventory, for swordless scabbard orders?
The Talhoffer is a popular sword within the community, and i'd be very interested in such an order for myself.

Greetings,
Max
Wonderfull work, as always! Interesting touch with non-symetrical scabbard chape, it really adds to the character of the scabbard.
I like the chape asymmetry as far as the design goes but was this seen in period scabbards?
I don't care, I want one on my scabbard! :D
I feel remiss in not replying to this earlier. All I have to say is that you have come up with another great one Brian. I also have to agree that the asymmetrical chape really goes well with the tooling.

Thanks Max.

I'm not likely to add a Talhoffer to my collection, though donations are gladly accepted ;)

D'oh!

I was tossing around with the idea of jumping onto your waiting list for a scabbard for my tally.

Oh well. :0)

Looks very good. I really like. A good job, My compliments :)

Just a question to fill my ignorance in Europe in 1400, the floral textures were fashionable?
Perhaps more Mediterranean-area or Eastern? I do not know.
I'm local to Brian and have an Albion Talhoffer he may borrow any time to build a scabbard from.
Brian, you inspire! Seriously. I look and I learn and I love every one of these scabbards you unveil.

Mui Exellante!

Murphy :cool:

Hello Keith, this is great news! Thanks for chiming in.
I'll take this opportunity as soon as my current project is finished, maybe still within this year.
It might be a custom-custom job with lambskin inside...now ive got something to think about in quiet moments :)

Greetings,
Max
Glad to help, Max. I plan to keep the Talhoffer, so there is no time limit for when Brian could make a scabbard from it. Best wishes,

Keith
