AndiTheBarvarian: Dwayne Johnson disagrees! Mar 28, 2024 19:38:14 GMT
rschuch: As anyone who's seen Excalibur knows, getting the sword INTO the rock isn't the problem, it's getting it back out again. Mar 28, 2024 19:13:13 GMT
durinnmcfurren: Movie turned out better than it had any right to be considering how many times a blade was shoved into rock. Yes, even once would be too much, but it was way more than once. Mar 16, 2024 22:36:55 GMT
Ramses1079: Yeah me too, which is a shame because he’s a good author. I guess that’s like when your favorite band releases a new album, and there’s always one or two tracks that you’re like “what were they thinking?” Mar 16, 2024 19:12:10 GMT
AndiTheBarvarian: Dunno, I like the Vimes and Mort novels but found several other boring. Mar 16, 2024 6:44:36 GMT
Ramses1079: Oh really, how come? I bet you’d definitely like it. Mar 16, 2024 6:09:14 GMT
AndiTheBarvarian: Big Vimes fan, but didn't read this. Mar 15, 2024 22:52:18 GMT
Ramses1079: Not according to Terry Pratchett (Harry King, aka the Piss Harry) 😉 Mar 15, 2024 21:39:44 GMT
AndiTheBarvarian: Wasn't the king thing not to pull a sword out of a rock? Mar 15, 2024 12:34:56 GMT
waxbytes: Durinnmcfurren, Mathew Jensen does stuff like that all the time, but of course, he's not a King. Mar 15, 2024 0:18:40 GMT
durinnmcfurren: Watching Damsel, two minutes in: 'Huh the king just JAMMED HIS SWORD INTO A ROCK. I can tell this is going to be GREAT.' Mar 14, 2024 23:40:08 GMT
AndiTheBarvarian: Brian! Mar 5, 2024 4:06:00 GMT
txhighlander: Lisan al-Gaib! Mar 4, 2024 20:24:56 GMT
JonSchwertFechter: AndiTheBarvarian: Thanks! Feb 22, 2024 7:09:54 GMT
AndiTheBarvarian: Happy Birthday! Feb 21, 2024 6:12:57 GMT
JonSchwertFechter: Well I guess it says something when you spend most of your waning Birthday Hours browsing on sword sites..ha;) a good B-day finish for me it is! Feb 21, 2024 4:21:46 GMT
sanniticus: Hi everyone, I posted a photo of the pommel of a medieval sword, does anyone have any news? Feb 8, 2024 15:54:37 GMT
Ramses1079: The addiction is real 😵‍💫 Feb 7, 2024 22:11:32 GMT
errolkavan369: Hi,just to say my first sword was the Accolade sword of the Knights Templar by Windlass,sorry to say all of the silver plate wore off the pommel and Crossgaurd just out of warranty,this sword was for display only,fortunately it didn't put me off collecting Feb 2, 2024 12:54:52 GMT
waxbytes: ... and the hand is still attached to the arm ...etc. Feb 2, 2024 9:35:09 GMT
