Quote:This weekend one of our group (Tony) had a sample from Eric Schmidt of 3mm riveted mail with less than thumb nail sized scales on it. Amazing: had to almost have a magnifying lens for it. Too small for my cell phone camera, but maybe Tony will post an image? He paid $50 for a 1" square (about 2cm square).
Sounds like a sweetheart deal even at $50. Erik's website puts the 1" price at $75.

Hmmm, I wonder if he does one in athletic cup size? :roll:
But it would still be several thousand dollars so I will have to pass on his wonderful work I guess :lol:
Maybe once I'm listed on the Forbes top 500, I'll be able to splerge!! :twisted:

Why, from what I've been told one scale may be a bit much. :twisted: :lol:
In all seriousness though, RAT members get a discount. It's the least I could do since you all have said such nice things. :wink:

So, based on the discount that Tony got, a full hauberk would only run $10,000 instead of $15,000? That's very generous of you!

Ha! :lol:
Oh well, one can dream. At any rate, for most of us the difference between a $10,000 hauberk and a $15,000 one is an amusing side-note at best.
