New page

In SCA rapier, a Junior Scientist is someone who uses their academic or technical knowledge to test various questions about things like armor strength or blade behavior ''without'' the benefit of an actual laboratory. Typically their experiments are done in the living room or garage, using available materials.

An experimental archaeologist is someone who attempts to re-create historical artifacts using known or hypothesized historic techniques, rather than modern tools or methods.

Here are reports on some of their work:

----
[[The Machine]]

[[Combat Anatomy]] or "If that was a real blade, what would it have done to you?"

[[A Treatise Concerning Leg Wounds]] By Don Aubrey de Baudricort and Joachim van der Haus

[[The Touch-kill Question]] Why "If you feel it, call it." isn't necessarily correct.

[[Testing lighter armor]] Is it possible to reduce the number of fabric layers in SCA rapier armor and still maintain safety?
