is there a blacksmiths round yorkshire where they make medieval armour and the sort. i seem to remember as a child being taken to a place with a blacksmiths and this burly dude was making a sword in an open workshop.

I wanna have a look around one. Is there much money in it?

Hi Poor Guy

You seem to have a rather (un)healthy interest in war gear

A quick search on google found me this list.

I'm sure you must be aware but there is the Royal Armouries up in Leeds which is worth a look around.

I'm not sure on the financial aspect as the appeal is limited aithough there is one trader who I think makes a packet selling jubbly tat to visitors.

Just join a society, you know you want to
