Belt Rings
Belt rings were a common way of fastening a belt, especially in the later medieval period. The belt was quite long and tied with a "knight's knot", and the end allowed to hang. These have an elaborate pattern derived from a Viking period spur. There are two sizes:
B-31; about 3" in diameter, for a 2" belt, $18. (One in Stock)
B-22; about 1 3/4" in diameter, for a 1" belt, $14. (One in Stock)

Brass Buckle
This is a simple brass buckle in a style that hasn't changed much since Roman times. Cast in brass and highly polished, it's stout enough for belt, armor or harness. It's about 2" high and takes a one inch strap or belt.
The price is $5 each, or 6 for $25.

Ordering

Shipping and handling is $6 per order (not per item) anywhere in the US. Standard shipping is by Priority Post, insured if warranted by the value of the order. This doesn't actually cover the cost in most cases, but it's easy to calculate, and is my way of saying "thank you". Shipping is available for most other parts of the world, but usually costs more. Email for a quote. Note; shipping to Canada can be very slow.

New York State residents should add sales tax.

Most folks use a credit card and the encrypted secure order form. If you prefer, you can FAX your order to 716-731-3715. I'll need the type of card (Discover, Visa, or Master Charge), card number and expiration date. If course I'll also need to know what you are buying, and where to send it. Please include your e-mail address.

If you don't have a FAX, you can call that same number, and if your timing is good just speak to me. No collect calls.

If instant gratification is unavailable, you can always send a Postal Money Order or check to:

Ragweed Forge
PO Box 326
Sanborn, NY 14132

The Postal Snail may be slow, but he's faithful and discreet. Checks may be held for clearance, so if you're in a hurry, use a money order.

Everything on the page should be on hand and ready to ship. However some items may be short supply, so if you are ordering by mail, you might want to e-mail first so that I can hold your item (ragnar@ragweedforge.com).
