I like to see the bare blade myself.

I only concentrated on collecting katana this last 2 years; prior to that I'm mostly a Medieval Western swords guy

I will be snapping some pics on my Western sharpies to share at a later time - it's been raining continuously here such that I do not have good indoor lights for photography.

Over here where I live, the air's pretty dusty & super humid, thus I prefer to shield all my sharpies as much as I can. But fret not, I intend to work out a pictorial review of each sword I 'showcased' here... in due time. So be sure to check out my Member's Collections thread frequently :-p

Thanks for your compliments, Dave. They are nothing, compared to yours

Yours is the kind of collection I dream to have..... one day :-p

The piece you mentioned is actually a MRL Estoc/English Tuck modified by Sean Flynt (Forumite from MyArmoury).

I forgot to mention that's about the largest piece of wall I have in my home that's not under direct sunlight

As it is, I'm unable to have any addition to this wall without looking over-crowded.

Thanks, Deep.. Wish I have a larger wall so I can mount more swords, but then, it's never enough

mrstabby: Been thinking the same - but the person that set up the page might not be there anymore and old code gets messy when not maintained. Might be a "repair subscriptions, destroy function X, repair X, destroy Y" situation by now - would mean a total overhaul. Nov 18, 2024 7:29:27 GMT
