Ave Matt,

If there are still more... I'd be interested in 2 pounds of hobnails as well.
Vale!

They should be on the way from the manufacturer now and are expected to reach me the first week of January- I'll get them out ASAP after that. Of course I'll let everyone know when they arrive and are about to be mailed :wink:

I'm eagerly waiting for those hobnails. I've just used almost the all of my Le Prevo hobnails for a friend's caligae and I will need more for my next pair. This time I'm working on a pattern for the Mainz caliga.

By the way, I've also made a change to my construction method. I now do as Martin Moser does and tunnel stitch the upper and out-sole surfaces together. It's all a matter of having the right tools.

Just arrived home today to find a small but heavy box awaiting at the corner shop!! Thought it was something else, then read the label this evening!

I see me marching across the empire unhindered now! Big Grin

Great hobnails Matt and DSC!

Thanks!
