  • Gurkha Officer's Kukri (Official Spec.)

    2 Review(s)

    Our Officer’s Kukri is manufactured by Windlass Steelcrafts. It is a little smaller than the standard regimental weapon, but its grip is made of natural buffalo horn. The blade of tempered carbon steel came from the same forge that has made the official edged weapons of the Indian Army for years. The officer's model has a short, narrow fuller from the grip to the curve of the blade and the typical cutouts that symbolise the god Shiva's trident. It has a full tang, which is riveted to the brass pommel end.

    This Officer’s Kukri includes a wooden scabbard covered with black buffalo leather and a brass chape. At the back, there are two pockets for the smaller accompanying knives, the karda and chakmak. The holder for the belt loop is removable as required.

    Total length: 35cm
    Blade length: 25cm
    Grip length: 10.5 cm
    Weight: 430g
    Blade thickness (base): 0.55 cm
    Blade width (base): 4.0 cm

The extremely deep cuffs are decorated with five metal buttons for an elegant appearance.

  • Late Middle Ages Jerkin

    People wore jerkins like this one during the Late Middle Ages. This jerkin not only serves as padding to be worn underneath armor, it also makes a handsome outer tunic when worn over a shirt or tunic and breeches. This sleeveless version in classic black is made of 100 percent cotton ribbed velveteen. It is completely padded to make it especially comfortable to wear. The row of functioning buttons goes from the base of the collar to the hips and fastens this black jerkin securely. In combination with its skirt, this form-fitting, elegant garment is cut to emphasize broad, masculine shoulders and dashing sleeves.

    100% cotton.

  • Beowulf Shirt

    - Lightweight 
    - Cotton 
    - Lace-up

    Like so much other Nordic-style and Celtic-style garb, this practical lace up shirt with padded sleeves is made of 100 percent cotton in linen weave. The brown stripes at the elbows form a powerful contrast to the light, unbleached cotton colour, and the lacing at the neckline is playfully repeated on the sleeves. The stand-up collar and sleeves are padded and quilted, which means this lace up shirt is perfect for wearing underneath our Beowulf Leather Jerkin. Or – of course – as standalone outer wear!

  • Pleasant Peasant Dress - Red

    Dresses in the style of this distinctive, red one were especially popular in the 12th and 13th centuries, the age of the princess cotehardie. The wide trumpet sleeves are shirred above the elbows for an elegantly tight yet comfortable fit and the skirt is very generously cut. Simply pull the dress over your head to put it on, and use the waist cincher to adjust the waistline to flatter your figure. Without the waist cincher, this dress can also be worn as a chemise beneath a cotehardie or a bodice and skirt.
