Hehe, I live about an hour and a half away from Toledo, where they make all kinds of steel tempered swords, Roman Imperial lorica segmentatas, gladius hispaniensis (duh we invented it) and all kind of armour, shields, from Saracen to Christian to whatever you want, even LOTR stuff is there (a full suit of steel Elven armor from the first movie´s intro scene too with the curving blade)

it´s probably one of the few places left where there is a large amount of old fashioned smithies who produce all kinds of intricate and historical armour. FYI, the scutum imperatoria is heavy... after paying 200 euros and purchasing two broadswords, the guy let me wear the lorica segmentata, and the cool imperial hat with the long metal mullet... gotta love roman armor.

fyi you can order custom built armor from these people... just show them a picture and they pretty much make anything (our family shield was made by them, yes we do have a family shield)
