Currently on my desk. Replenishing my stock of 'belt' knives. The first batch of blades have had handles fitted and sheaths made. The next step is to emboss the leather.

I made another spear cover. These are actually fairly simple to make, or would be if it wasn't for a ball point spear!!

Happy Anniversary Regia. It's the reason I do all these wierd crafts.

This weekend Regia celebrated our 40th anniversary with a massive event showing off the many facets of the hobby that has grown over the last four decades. For members who had been here since the beginning as well as those for whom SherwoodXL was their first show, the event was one of unity and celebration, and the excitement of many more years to come.
Pictured below are six of the members who have been a part of the fabric of Regia since its founding.

Again, mostly shields this week. I might make a square one just for variety!
Although, one of these is going to be a bit different from the norm..... watch this space.

That feeling when you think you are doing ok with orders, then you have to replenish your leather stocks and realise just how expensive life is!

I've been away visiting the tenth century for a week. I'm back now so normal activity will resume shortly.... well, eventually, as at my age it takes a while to fully recover!!
Apologies to anyone who has messaged me and has had no, or an incomplete reply. I'll get my staff onto it shortly!
