Paddywhack - latex weapons and leatherworks

(Note that the next statement is based entirely on theory as I’ve never swung a sword in anger - LARP or otherwise - in my life :slight_smile: )

I kind of assume that’s both a good and bad thing - it means I’ll typically be swinging at the opponent’s sword arm and not directly at their shield, but of course it means the same for them too :stuck_out_tongue: The advantage being that they will have to adjust their fighting style (a little) while I’ll just be doin’ what I do :slight_smile:

Thanks. Usually you’d get an automatic invoice email when you place an order, but like I said the website seems unwell… dunno how changing some prices and making some items unavailable has had this effect, will have to investigate. In the meantime, I’ll send a manual invoice with the payment details.

The sword holder trim is usually brown, black or green, and it often looks different to what you see there. There’s a design with trim along the edge, and one with a kind of star in the middle. Usually I just take whatever I’m sent and hand them out at random, but I can ask the supplier for a particular colour & style to be sent and send it to you - what are you after?

Correct on the handedness. If you’re left handed then order left handed, and it will sit on your right hip.

Cool. Was hoping there was a red or red/brown (like the scabbards) option in there :laughing:. Can I please get the star one, in (red???) green if possible? But honestly, absolutely anything will be perfect :slight_smile: I’m just hopin and dreamin now :laughing:

Made an order for a black sword hanger, right handed. Hoping to have it as pictured, if I can, with no colours other than black and brown. The more plain looking the better really. Can you check what’s available and let me know?

Also, wanting to make a payment when the goods arrive, as am poor student who has just paid for Jade Empire.

Thanks.

Thanks for letting me know about your orders, folks.

I’m still receiving your in a database, it’s just the automatic invoice emails that aren’t working. I’ll generate some invoice emails for you manually.

And a reminder - this is the last day for orders.

So, if I order now, can I wait until I’m a bit more flush with wealth to pay off the entire thing?

Yep.

Marvelous.

Thanks for your orders everyone.

Because of the issue with my website, I’m now manually preparing invoices and emailing them out. If you’ve made an invoice and haven’t received an invoice, you should get yours today.

If anyone stumbles on this topic today and realises that they desperately want to order something from paddywhack.co.nz then make your order quickly, and if I haven’t sent the combined order off yet I’ll try to fit yours in.

Good news for those who have special orders pending: the current order is due to be sent from Europe on Friday, so I would expect it to arrive here in early May.

The order has arrived, right on time.

I will check that everything is present in the package, and get moving on sending everyone’s orders out or notifying people who want to pick up from my place in Westmere. I will also go through all the invoices and payments and let everyone know what their balance is.

Hey~ I was wondering if there was any chance in a custom order-esk thing.
Wanting a Hip Pouch sachel thing, something like:
But maybe alittle more flash to it, as its for a high class character for Teonn.

Your thoughts?

The suppliers I use don’t stock any bags or make custom leather items.

I would suggest having a search around online. Just be aware of shipping costs, and that things don’t always look as good in person as in the photos. Customer recommendations are the best bet.

You may find someone on Trademe selling a second-hand modern leather bag with the kind of bling effect you’re wanting.

I just went with a battered handbag. Gutted out one of the internal pockets, re-stitched the lining, undid the strap and replaced it with a pair of short straps so it could hang from a belt (alternatively, attach a pair of hangers to the back). Easy.

(Alternatively, there look to be some quite cheap ones available in the UK, so if you know a courier…)

You can get in touch with Vincent, futuravapeur.jimdo.com/

he’s got incredible skill and is able to do your custom order !
