Alright, I'm new here. My name is Anderson and I am a 28 year old art teacher from central Kentucky. Pictured below is my meager collection of swords.
From left to right:
Windlass Type XIV (newest, customized)
Windlass Sword of Tiberias (From Kingdom of Heaven movie. Carved new hilt, wrapped in twine)
Hanwei Antiqued Gustav Rapier
Windlass Towton Sword (my first sword. It's a decade old, so it's seen better days, but it's still my baby. I've never handled a sword with better balance. Carved and painted new hilt.)
Hanwei Henry V Sword (stripped off the leather guard, liked the white-ness of the wood, so I just put on a couple coats of linseed oil to bring out the grain.)
Windlass D-Guard Bowie

They are still available in Australia and have debated going for one.

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

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
