Don't wear it in the rain.

Norwegians don't rust 
 
 
 
We're built for this

well. sometimes you cant run away. and you have to face the bullys.
 
for the rain... well you have to sometimes. but cainmail is as every armory, verry dependent of cleaning and oiling. much work. it will rust witout rain too, if Your not oiling it, the gambeson underneth suck up lots oh humid.

i dont think it is bullet proof. so youll have to have more armour underneth. like bulletproof west. 3 layers of armour sounds hot.

To upgrade you information hungry people what i have done for now. This is it. Starting to learn to make those ribbons. The last one was faster made than the other. Just minutts. Well. Enough talkin.

A 100 kilo suit will be hard to carry (wear). I feel bad for the horse. You do have a horse, don't you? When it's complete perhaps you can find a squire here on the Sonar forums. 
 
Everyone needs a hobby.

Can you make chain femail?

Well, they're Vikings you know.  They can handle it. 

A guy I knew years ago used to make chainmail but he would buy the wire and cut and turn each ring by hand. Intense, time consuming stuff but it was VERY nice. He could sell a handmade chainmail body shirt for almost a grand (20 years ago). Of course it took months to make but it was cool stuff.
 
Mostly he sold wristbands and whatnot.
 
Supposedly it could turn a blade but who really wants to test that theory? lol...

There is two different kinds of chainmail. Here is a YouTube video explaining the differents about butted and the type i am making. Butted is fast and easy to make. But ribbed you have to fiddle with the ring to get it in the right position. And then you have to hammer a nail into the lock. It is not for everyone. That's for sure.

well as stated over in the video. it is about 2,5 3 kg for a rightfully made one. but you have to have gambeson under to make it more safe. the gambeson is a chock barrier between the chainmail and the skin. and it is also there so you have hair on your body after a days use. it is 4 kg.
