| RG Iron Works | Armour, Accessories | Australia | 4 | A rare Australian armourer (Toowomba). Excellent response time, easy to chat to, does HMB/Buhurt level gear.
*Would love to hear more from people that have bought his gear. |
| Medieval Extreme | Weapons, Armour, Helmets, Softkit, Accessories | Ukraine | 5 | Most widely used provider in the world and a contender for the best. Trusted by more fighters than any other. A clear 5 star contender. Some minor dips in quality in the last few years due to the war and expanding business. Get a shipping code from your club. |
| Buhurt Tech | Weapons, Armour, Helmets, Softkit, Accessories | Ukraine | 5 | Contender for best best buhurt armourer. High quality, typically good communication. Known to replace items at their expense if not fitted correctly. Buy with confidence. |
| Wild Armoury (Maxim Suprovich & Irina Suprovich) | Armour, Helmets | Ukraine | 5 | Maxim makes some of the best helmets available and Irina has exemplary communication. Expect a few months delay if ordering bespoke/custom, but well worth the wait. Usually have off-the-shelf ready to go. |
| Lemberg | Weapons, Armour, Helmets, Softkit, Accessories | Ukraine | 4 | Often cheaper than ME or Buhurt tech, but you can get a grade better as a result. Response times can be lagging, fits are often a bit too small, but if you are on a budget and want better gear Lemberg should be highly considered. Gambesons currently lack leather cuffs, and like many Ukraine companies they appear to be impacted by the war. |
| Gohurt | Weapons, Armour, Helmets, Softkit, Accessories | Poland | 4 | Good budget company. Their free shipping takes a very very long time. Communication is adequate. |
| Forge of Svan | Armour, Helmets, Accessories | Ukraine | 4 | Can customise armour |
| Age of Craft | Weapons, Armour, Helmets, Softkit, Accessories | Ukraine | 4 | Good range.

| Master Uley Workshop | Armour, Helmets | Ukraine | 4 | Has good communication and response time. Requires full payment up front. Keep track of correspondance particularly for any requests or modifications. Many items have subtle differences so be careful to order the correct thing. |
| GS Studio Armour Workshop | Armour, Helmets | Poland | 4 | I believe this is the only armourer recommended by Rob Hayes (Australia's only fully qualified armourer) because they have access to the highest quality steel and treatment due to their affiliation with their local university.
Communication, shipping, etc is currently unknown.

| Canadian Buhurt | Weapons, Armour | Canada | 2 | Nth American Shipping only
(Other than this they seem a very worthwhile company) |
| Trinity Arms Armor | Armour | USA | 2 | SCA oriented, and had a run of issues getting orders out. Very nice person to deal with though. |
| Optimum Arms | Softkit | USA? | 2 | Was known for excellent soft-kit but no activity for several years |
| Iron Beetle Armoury | Weapons, Armour, Helmets | USA/Pakistan | 2 | Great reputation, but has had some serious delivery issues to Australia recently. |
| Historicum | Weapons, Armour, Helmets, Softkit, Accessories | Poland | 1 | Wait times of over 2 years. Equipment not buhurt standard. Response times of over a month, unless negotiating payment. Some people will vouch for them, but the vast majority of experiences are absymal. On record for racist comments. If you are still thinking of purchasing from them (why?!), then make sure you can get a refund (don't let the refund window run out). |
