Does anyone here collect anything besides swords? I have a collection of Ancient artifacts including a Roman to Medieval spear head and fragment of a Spatha blade. I have attached pictures :) I used to collect guitars, amplifiers, comic books (still have a decent Marvel Silver Age collection I'm saving for my daughter)... I also started collecting antique Japanese tsuba. Here's a pic of the first and only one I have at the moment.

Very nice! I'm sure the tsuba was not easy to come by! Does anyone here collect anything besides swords?

I collect odd and useless knowledge. Not good for much other than bringing up in conversation. But it is fun to learn stuff even if it is not overly useful. I also collect silver. From old US coinage to modern silver art bars. I might also have a small addiction to bags. I have a lot of bags and packs and can't seem to ever have enough. No matter how nice my main bag and pack is I am always looking at others and even buying new ones. *edit to add BTW there was other threads about this topic sbg-sword-forum.forums.net/thread/42221/ and sbg-sword-forum.forums.net/thread/41429/

I collect medals from the time of Prussia and the German Empire, little statues of elefants and I want to start collecting Tomahawks and other axe-weapons.

The wife & I together collect Japanese costume dolls (ishō ningyō), books (first editions, press books, etc.), coins, fantasy art prints, several other odds and ends and somewhere in storage lies the remnants of my stamp collection. Oh, yes! We also collect antique pocket watches. That pretty much sums it up.

When I first saw this thread, I thought it was the linked one, then was confused when there were no posts. As I mentioned in that thread, though, I don't collect much of any one thing, but I've got a bit of quite a few things. Haven't added anything new to the lesser collections in a while, though; wanting to get back into stones and such but I kind of already have everything off interest to me. Anyway, I recently updated my photobucket album, here's my room again because I like to show off: s190.photobucket.com/user/randomnobody/library/Room%20Pics?sort=3&page=1
