That's one helluva collection there, Fallen! Just a small point, but you left out the nodachi and mixed up the tanto and gladius there at the end.

Ditto on Vinie's observations.
I had no idea you were a katana man. What is it about the Kris Cutlery? I have seen them posted here, but what is the draw?
And the Korean sword--what is that all about? It looks like it has negative sori!? Or is that an optical illusion?
I thought your thing was strictly machetes. Pleasantly surprised. Now you have axes and tomahawks coming our way. Can't wait.

Larry, I think the deal with the Korean sword is that it is[/] an optical illusion; after all, it's surrounded by a bunch of curved beauties. It's also the pegs, I think. The left side is higher than the right.
As to KC, I've seen numerous people say that while they may be a little lacking in the looks department, they're built like tanks.

If it has a edge, a point, you can shoot it, bash with it or drive it I'm problaby in to it. The Kris Cuterly Korean sword it straight, it does have a taper from the guard to the point. I notice it looked like it had a negative sori too just to lazy to redo the picture. Sometimes with it by itself it looks like it has a negative sori too. I have so many KC swords because they are very good swords, also I got real good deals on them.
I did picke a new machete today too a Imacasa 18inch blade double edge .

The best ones you can't get anymore the Wau Jau Forge Cherry Blossom, Oni forge Tengu Unokuri. Of the ones still made the best bang for the buck is the Kris Cuterly 29 series or the shorter ones, they aren't real pretty but you can up grade them. They are the best workhorses. The Hanwei Elite Tori is nice too but alot higher in price. The worse is the Musashi Tatsu or Hiryuu, but it was under $100.00 when I got them
The Last Legend and Dynasty Forge are also nice.
For awhile I was trying to get every style of katana there was ever made.

I love your sword collection, but I'll admit it; something happened in my pants when I saw the axes. Then I started to notice your target setup and had to go to the bathroom. Oklahoma isn't that far away from North Carolina.......I promise to wash my hands before we throw axes.

Yeah, I noticed you added 3 more for a tic tac to board. That's one target setup I'd like to have again here. There's all kinds of fun games with that set up. If I ever do get to OK we'll do some throwing. Maybe some shooting too, but since I'll most likely be driving, I don't think I'll be bringing any of my rifles.

So after reading this thread several times and thinking of what we've seen of your collection of firearms too I'd have to say I'm going green with envy... very green.
Nice collection fallen, very nice.

Sam H I think I may be alot older than you maybe someday you will be as lucky as I,ve been to be able to grow your firearms and blade collection. You've only seen a small part of my fireams. Also I have not kept all the firearms I,ve had over the years some of which I wish I had ever got rid of. I really miss my Thompson submachine gun had to sale it because of medical bills thought one day I would get another one then the ban came into effect and the price of any full automatic went through the roof.
