Debuting at Socal Swordfight 2013, this is my new Back of the Head Protection 3.0! Pictured is the progress of Joe Cantore's, but the new design features custom died tops, 2 easy to stitch panels for mounting onto masks, an articulated mantle, with the hardened top and foam lining you know and love.

COLORS!!!
I have made swatches of all the leather dyes/gels/paints I have... so now you know what I have. Just a reminder, I'll custom dye anything a color I don't have for just the cost of the dye

I've reached 60 likes! I'm interested to hear what sorts of projects you'd be like to see me work on! Leave a comment, or message me some ideas :)

Rigid protection for the back of fencing masks, with foam inserts avaiable. Can be stitched or riveted, with options for mantle flaps, buckled straps as an attachment point, and custom dyes/tooling/designs

Now with alternating colored stitching!

Sized for over heavy gambeson or light jacket wear, these hardened bracers can either have buckles straps, lace, or a combination. Lining options of padding also available (neoprene, light foam, and heavy foam)

Simple (and cheap!) adjustable sword hangers.
