Good Morning Bors and PK!!! How are the both of you? I unfortunately missed the fun last night as I was by a friends house. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> Looks like everyone was here.

Great pic's Bors! I love that mail shirt and the sheath looks great. You have real talent!

I did not actually time myself but your looking at somwhere in the neighborhood of 200-250 hours.

The rings are Stainless steel Split rings. (like key rings). Their made for the fishing industry. I have made about a dozen shirts all different. My latest shirts use split rings and solid punced rings. Their lighter and a bit stronger.

Here is a video of a test I did on the split ring / punched ring shirt.


The first three are thrusting using a Benchmade M2 Nimravus
The forth one is cutting using an out of the box ontario 1-18 Machete
The fifth one ia an overhand thrust using the Benchmade M2 Nimravus
Neither one defeated the mail.
