Hi guys, does anyone know of any good resources for first aid/ basic medicines used during the mid 15th century?
Many thanks

Fantastic! Many thanks for the replies and advice guys. Really appreciate it.

Of course, sorry I forgot to add that part. I'm an archer, 14th century. I'm looking to make something quite plain.

Hi all, this may be a silly question but I'm interested in making a cloak to go with my medieval kit. Can anyone give me and advice or instructions on how to make one?
Cheers

Thanks for all the time and information guys. You guys are a gold mine of information! This topic and the one about archers sidearms shows that there is a lot more to it than giving someone a bow and half dozen arrows and calling them an archer. Was there much evidence of archers in full plate legs?...

I really appreciate the help guys. I must admit that a Bollock dagger was something I'd never really put much thought into. I like the idea of the kit, I hadn't considered that. I've made a kit knife before, a Finnish bushcraft knife which was fun to do and turned out well. Still use it today.

Hello again guys, I'm sorry to ask what I'm sure will be a stupid question, but I'm looking to reenact a yeoman archer, someone with a bit more kit. What kind of kit should I be looking at? I have reasonable quality 15th century soft kit etc. I just thought I'd ask for some advice. Crowd survey is w...

Fantastic, thanks.

Hi guys, just a quick question. Can anyone recommend a good Bollock dagger, not too expensive but suitable for a household archer.
Thanks in advance for any help, or amusing responses.
Cheers.

Hello guys,
Hope everyone is well. I was hoping that I could ask a possibility silly question, I'm looking to get hold of an archers pick. Does anyone know where I can find one? Or anyone have one they want to part with?
Thanks for your time guys.
