|
|
HI All,
A few weeks a thread was raised about a falchion scabbard which appears to have a quiver attached for crossbow bolts.
This has proved too tempting for me and I feel the need to make one.
The bottom line is that I have a Vassal scabbard core that I could use for this, but as it will be a rather specialised product I wouldn't mind lining up a customer first - are there any takers?
The sort of piece I would intend is shown below.
Regards
Tod

Hi Christian,
Check out the Did combined quivers/scabbards exist? thread here for more similar images and discussion ... and where I encouraged Tod to make one! (Or was that Tod encouraging me to encourage him to make one?)
Tod: Seeing as you're ready to go on a falchion model, how about making that one for Christian, and then you can make one for a messer for me, having learnt all the things you'd do differently? :p
Just as long as it's not so complicated that you think 'I'll never make one of those again!' :D

I have a Vassal, but no crossbow.
Do you have more than one core?

Mark,
I would love to.

I must say that the first I got to know about these was in the thread that Mark highlighted and that is all I know. There seem to have a been a few of them around, but beyond the shown artwork and our speculation I know nothing more I am afraid. I just really want to make one and thereby find out a little more.

That is quite generous of you, the thing is that I have scaled my ambition level down to trying to make a few daggers.
I have one not too impressive one finished at the moment. :(
That means that I do not have a sheath project, but would want to buy a finished vassal sheath.
I just have the impression that there is quite a backlog but there might have been a opening for a vassal sheath from Todd within a reasonable time frame.
Sorry it I have confused things.
