Hi All, Pretty new to this forum but thought I'd share how I've been spending my money in 2017 to outfit the man cave. Swords and Cannon models. I'll post the pics of the swords for your interest. Most of you will recognize them. The one's pointed right are all Albions, Medieval and recognizable. The left vary with period. They are Eagle pommel officers sword in relic condition, a replica Spanish Kings sword..high quality but maker unknown, an original Basket hilt made about 1820, an Arms and Armor Lombardi Rapier, A Thomas Yeudall Scottish Lowland sword (maybe my favorite) and a decent signed Katana.

mrstabby: Hello, welcome even under these sad circumstances. Maybe put out a thread in the Renaissance/Military subsection. Nov 28, 2024 6:52:12 GMT *

trooperwill: I have just been appointed conservator and Guardian for Dave Kelly and have no experience or knowledge of swords. I would appreciate any assistance that folks who know Dave or have visited with him and seen his collection could give me. need appraisal Nov 28, 2024 0:05:16 GMT

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
