Sources fittings for 18th century dirk, scabbard, baldric?
I am trying to find sources for parts suitable for an 18th century ensemble of Scottish Highland (pre-Culloden, so pre-1746) dirk scabbard, broadsword scabbard, and baldric - so large and small chapes (dirk brass, sword steel probably) and baldric (bronze buckle, keeper and tip, probably at least 50mm/2"wide, can be fairly upmarket). My Google-fu has failed me!

Any links to suppliers will be appreciated.
I can't speak to authenticity, but Richard Lanni AKA BuckleCastings does a nice baldric set in some different sizes: https://www.facebook.com/Bucklecastings

Thanks, I've had a look at his FB page, he has some patterns that might be good for my needs, and I have messaged him.
