Castille Armory
Perfection In A Sword
Founded by life-long swordsman Sam Kovic in 2013, Castille Armory creates world class swords and accessories for a discerning clientele. Sam has passed on his knowledge, craftsmanship and techniques to his crew, a band of talented individuals that share the deep love for all things swords. This personal passion keeps Castille Armory on the forward edge of high-end sword building. Because quality and attention to detail are everything in a niche’ market, every craftsperson at Castille Armory fences. Mostly because we love the sport, but it’s that hands-on approach that means we design your sword as if it were our own.
If it’s not good enough for us to use in tournament, it’s not good enough for our customers.
Hematees
Cutting edge designs from a designer with a longsword
I’m a freelance commercial artist in the UK. My artwork appears worldwide in books and magazines on products and adverts. I am also an instructor with Taunton Longswords HEMA, and part of a medieval weapons demonstration group, employed to swing swords, and fling rocks from siege engines in some of the UK's biggest castles. With Hematees I've combined my love of swords and design to bring you an ever growing range of designs.
Keller Gauntlets
Custom saber and full gauntlets
I have been making gauntlets since 2012! I was tired of nothing fitting my 3XL hands so I started to make my own. It has been a long process to have something that would protect my hands as well as be able to hold the swords without losing mobility and grip.
