Re: gambeson / jacks and water?
Thanks! I’m in love with the way it layers with the rest of my kit. Sadly this is just a lightweight cheapo one I bought for my first revision and then walnut dyed and waxed it to test the concept. It works and I definitely prefer it to leather. Its a nice bit of extra padding to relieve pack straps...

Re: gambeson / jacks and water?
I’ve added a light sleeveless gambeson that I’ve lightly waxed to act as my jerkin. No real complaints out in the wet so far.

“Alas I have have not but a common knife aside from my own sword…” began Ursus. Taur reached smoothly behind him and drew forth a fine seax, stout, single edged, and a veteran of many adventures and began to hand it to Cimrandir. “Hold friend” said Urus laying two fingers on Taur’s arm. “As luck wou...

Re: What brings you here?
“Ah my friend it is a somewhat fretful tale that finds me here when I desperately need to be away home. I and two of my kinsman took service escorting a merchant headed south down the Greenway to Tharbad. He claimed to have a vessel waiting to ship his goods down the Greyflood and we were hoping to ...

Re: What brings you here?
“Why don’t you ask your friend, come sweeping in here all urgent like I stirring up my customers in his haste. ” Barliman muttered as he thumped down two foaming mugs and tottered off back to the kitchens. “Friend?” Eofor asked with a raised eyebrow. With a creak from the stairs leading to the upper...

We’ll start with the specs: Overall length: 51 inches Blade length: 39 7/8 inches Handle: 7 1/2 inches Guard: 7 7/8 inches wide Wei...

Re: When and Where should the term 'Ranger' be applied?
Hrmm... it's the capital "R" in "soldiers of Gondor, and they were Rangers of Ithilien " that stands out to me. That implies I think that in Tolkien's mind, we're not just talking role here but title . Now, my guess would be that there is some unknown Westron word that means bas...
