Page 1 of Anyone else collect swords?

bit of a bonkers subject, but I collect ornamental swords and knives, particularly those designed by Kit Rae, (I own Fossil Hunter II, Leviathan, fang of Baelin, The Valdris, and Luciendar, sword of light.) Just wondered if anyone else out there entertained the same interests.

I`m afraid not but please remember, there can be only one...

I`m interested in swords but more practical swords like sabers, chinese sabers, samurai swords.. anything martial really!
My collection consists of one sword though and I have kids so I can`t see me buying anymore until I get my black belt then I`ll need a chinese broadsword.

"wondered if anyone else out there entertained the same interests."

Swords? No, but I`ve got a huge chopper.


:D

"No, but I`ve got a huge chopper"

Is it an Apache gunship with all da bell`s n whistles?

if so can I have a ride on it?

where can you buy samurai swords from at a reasonable price ?

"by the mighty sword of dobber i shall buy some if the price is right"

as a collector, i`d have to say that importing Swords from the US is cheaper on the whole, but you may have to pay some customs clearance fees. (most i`ve had to pay was about £35)

In the uk, you could try http://www.battleorders.co.uk
or http://www.bkcg.co.uk

the main site I bought a couple from in US has been shut down for some reason. but here a couple

of course, you`ll know the British laws about knife and sword ownership. If not, basically, don`t take them outside. don`t threaten anyone with one, and don`t let kids see or touch them. That`s about it

". If not, basically, don`t take them outside. don`t threaten anyone with one, and don`t let kids see or touch them."

Sorry for the spam but isn`t this true for my chopper as well?

Depends if you mean your Apache gunship or not :)

I`ve got a pork sword if you`re interested (variation on a theme.)
