These are called the do (chest protector) and sode (shoulder armour).... it opens like a clamshell and has shoulder buckles as well. The lower lames cover down to about mid thigh...
A bunch of pieces here, on the left and right are koke, meaning arm guards, made of chain and plate, the top is a haidate covers down to a bit past the knees, ties at the waist and around the back of the thighs.
The lower pieces are suneate, and cover the shins and knee caps...

Even at my current 5' 9" and 175 lbs I am considerably larger than most samurai. The damn do is about 2" too small for me. But I'm working on it.

In the BF, you mentioned pix of your katanas and wakizashis, but declined to show them. Since OSY isn't as uptight, I'd be interested to see them, as well as info you'd care to post. As I understand it the katana is the long sword and the wakizashi is the short sword? I assume the katana was the primary fighting sword, but I have no idea what the other would be for. Enlighten me, please. :)

from OscarWilde posted at 9:35 pm on June 17, 2002As soon as I got close to an Apple store I felt the RDF flow over me like a nice warm blanket. The cold chill as I got further away from the store made me desire to return to that warmth as soon as possible.
It's like morphine, in that regard.
Hence I ran back into the store, begged them to accept me as one of them, hugged a few clerks, especially the women, and then walked out with my own personal RDF-radiator(tm).
Don't tell me you hugged the fat chick in the "Switch" ad.
Tue Jun 18 02:51:57 2002
Okay that is an utter lie.
No i did not hug her, but i damn made sure i touched the fine asses i could find.

Hey EM, you still trying to sell that purty G3?
I call dibs.

$450 and it goes to a nice loving home. Since it's you guys, I will pay for shipping, as long as it is not to east bum fuck canada. It's almost all original except for the 620 MB of ram, the 14.5 GB hdd. Oh yeah and OS X. I have the CD's for the OS too...
As for pictures of my blades... I will take some tonight (if I remember and if it is not raining out).

Sold to DeAthe.
Good price, but there I was debating whether or not I wanted to buy a machine with RAM and drives. Oh well.
Wed Jun 19 16:42:26 2002
Sometimes I forget to buy stuff for my new computers... I hate that.

It's quite nice to get a machine and just have to plug it in and install an OS.Sometimes I forget to buy stuff for my new computers... I hate that.
True, but I have a lot of older drives and RAM sitting around.

DeAthe, I will have to admit, MacOS X can be a good OS, you just gotta hammer it to be so... I could only imagine how good it could have been on x86 with a real interface.
You mean... Windows? :biggrin:

I'll take KDE over CDE without hesitation.
CDE has a certain primitive charm, not unlike Australian women.
