Nordic Arms SCA Armor, Sport Armor, Live Steel Armor, LARP Armor, & Stuff for Ren Faire and Other
Reenactors.The concept for Nordic Arms started years ago, but the business just got started in earnest in
January, 2005. We are literally a small "Mom & Pop" operation with a goal of getting quality, munitions-grade armor to
all types of medieval reenactors at reasonable prices. Bjorn has been fighting & marshalling in the Society for Creative
Anachronism (
SCA) and armoring as a hobby since 1980, so he's very familiar with the SCA armor standards. We both started the business after
retiring from the Air Force and giving birth to our son, Alaric.
Bjorn inn Gauzki, formerly Bjorn Svenson (m.k.a.
Ken) is the armorer of the business. Thorhild Sigurdsdottir (m.k.a. Kristin) takes care of the marketing, sales and administration.
Together we market many types of peripheral armor for reenactors, with Bjorn coming up with new designs all the time. Bjorn
is also constantly upgrading his tools & techniques to bring new and better designs to our buyers.The items we offer on
Ebay are on-hand, so there's no waiting for fabrication. Recently we have even sold new consignment items for Arts and Armour
and used items for fighters wishing to sell their pre-owned stuff. We're also testing the market for unfinished items, like
unpolished helms or helms you fabricate and install your own face protection on and hand-forged campware. Our primary method
of sales is through Ebay, with event sales being considered for the near future. Our shipping policy is to get the item shipped
within 2-3 business days (Monday thru Friday, except holidays) of payment receipt and our goal is to ship items out in 1 business
day. If we're not eventing or out of town on a given Saturday, we frequently ship items out that were paid for the previous
Friday evening. We ship to
most locations worldwide, including APO and FPO addresses. So far, our international business
has generated orders to Belgium, Canada, England, France, Germany, Japan, & Spain! You can contact us directly at thorbjorn@elp.rr.com
if you have questions about new designs, future event appearances or requests for items you don't see listed.
