Me in my Rus/viking hard kit.

I'm portraying a central swedish viking with eastern estonian-russian trading connections.

I'm wearing a helmet from Gniezno, a leather lamellar armor, a chain mail, a gotland shield, a peterson type S sword, an hour glass quiver, a rus cavalry axe and various rus-scandinavian bling.

Hello,

Fantastic outfit, one of the best I've seen.

I was wondering, where you obtained your pouch from.
I like it very much.

Cheers,
Dave - Australia.

I made this pouch. It is an up scaled version of the Birka bag. The fittings a bought from a Ukrainian guy many years ago.

Thanks!

Very very nice outfit, is the lamellar armor made by yourself?

Thank you! I made this a long time ago. Truth be told there are no evidence pointing to lamellar made from leather ever being used in the north.

Yeah, there is not much proof about leather lamellar armor by Vikings and Rus Vikings. But it looks good.
