Hi folks!

These are the blades I currently own (I hope the image is visible...).
From left to right: Hanwei Side Sword, Hanwei William Marshall Sword (the first actual sword I acquired), H/T Longsword, Windlass European Sword, Windlass Mainz Gladius and Windlass Gurkha Kukri.

Stuff I used to have: Cold Steel Shamshir, Hanwei Raptor Shobu Zukuri Katana (exchanged for the H/T Longsword), Musashi Black Shikomizue, Hanwei Solingen Rapier, Windlass 1840 NCO Sword, Hanwei Practical Viking Sword, Windlass Greek Hoplite Sword. In addition, I recently sold a mysterious antique sword (late 19th/early 20th century, Danish/Swedish/Austrian, German, Peruvian, Bolivian? Couldn't find out its origin)

Being a student, this tiny collection is unlikely to grow too soon. Hopefully it will though, eventually.

Thanks mate! Yeah, that would be a nice setting for a wall display as well. However, I just put them to to floor like that in order to take the picture.

Yep Huuto.net is a place where many Finnish collectors eye for good deals.

Unfortunately pretty much all sword related discussion boards in Finnish are dead quiet, here you'll find lots of good sword chatter and nice folks.

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

choseychas: Huh. Is there no fix on our side then? Or is it that you need to contact an admin since the auto system is down? Nov 18, 2024 3:58:50 GMT

eastman: problems with the forum software are the cause, not a goal to limit the club. There is an error with the software that messes up activities that require the sending of email. Nov 18, 2024 3:57:36 GMT

choseychas: That's what I figured, wasn't sure if it had become a limited club where you have to know someone to get in or what was going on. Nov 18, 2024 2:39:40 GMT

eastman: that situation has been constant at MyArmoury for the last 2-3 years Nov 18, 2024 0:32:06 GMT

choseychas: Anyone have any info on MyArmoury registration? Been wanting to make an account for a year or more (can't remember at this point) but every time I've checked they've halted registrations. Nov 17, 2024 21:55:36 GMT

alinkinthechain: I also do love Boston. I've traveled a bit and nothing feels as wonderful as that city to me. I'm lucky to live nearby Nov 12, 2024 15:28:16 GMT

txhighlander: Boston might be my fav. So much history, and clean! and great food. New York was cool for a day to see iconic landmarks Nov 7, 2024 17:00:22 GMT

eskiso: someone can help me to identify a sword and its origin, to see its commercial value please. 2346
