Latex Rapier was created by Frost (Frost)
Hello all,

I am looking to buy a Latex Rapier either new or used.  Anyone selling or have any ideas/suggestions?  Would love to hear from you.

Ateliers Nemesis has some really nice stuff:

I have the Basket Hilt (modified for Carlos - just got it, it has not gone out IG yet), while several other people have the Swashbuckler, Corsair, and Eldar blades.  Their stuff is very nice, and the curved blades are exceptionally well balanced.  They're also local to Canada...

Is that a modest proposal you are making? :)

I got a latex rapier from them via Geoff's last haul, er buy.  It looks great, feels nice with a good balance and weight.  Considering it was at a 20% discount the price was only high, not exorbitant.  If only one could thrust with it, it would be perfect.  If you come in June, you can check mine out as well as Geoff's.  Since I only play this character for one period, you caneven borrow it to try it on for size.
 
It will be good to have you back, Shawn.

Thanks again all for the well wishes and all the help with the weapon.  I am really looking forward to coming down and seeing all of you again.

I am sorry Jackie, I will not be bringing the little one down with me this time... still a bit young for a 7 - 8 hour drive I am afraid. 

Tom... no eating my child.  ;D

Charlie, thanks for the offer with the weapon but I have ordered one and it should be here this week.  Which reminds me that if anyone wishes to buy anything from Ateliers Nemesis I can get it fairly quickly (within a week as long as it is in stock) with a much lower price on the shipping as they are located in Canada. Just let me know.

See you all soon,
Shawn

I would try Iron Liege,

I have quite a few of his weapons and they are superbly built and the price is respectable as well. IF you do not see anything at his web sight that you like, then I would ask him to build you a custom one. I know Greg will do you right!

Here is his web sight www.ironliege.com . Tell him Don from Dark Ages sent you. IT might help in the price… can’t promise anything but you never know!

Don


I will add more later... :)

Greg would love to attend... if he could find the time.  He's been overly busy with work, projects, and orders.  Plus, we are at least 4-5 hours of a drive from where he is in PA.

Last I spoke with him, he was planning maybe a Summer event (July or August) to stop by.

I'm trying to get him to come to DEXCON as well, since he could probably make a killing there.
