Kimber Desert Warrior and HK VP40 I got the HK VP40 with dark grey handle a few months back (love that desert brown). Cool as hell indeed, and the price of HK went down to "no brainer" territory, purchase wise, compared to the competition.

The dealer threw in a full lifetime warranty for free so it was definitely a no brainer.

What ya gonna do, the HK VP9 was $500...got that too (hey, I rhymed).

Kaneie Guardians are awesome! Nice collection sir! Thank you! The Kaneie is still my personal favorite. Its surprising the amount of a difference there is between the Kaneie and the Tiger Elite considering they both fall in the $1000-$1500 price bracket.

Very nice collection. How do you like that Brandenburg rapier? It's a nice rapier for windlass. The blade has flex but its stiff. Certainly not a whippy noodle. The hilt on mine is great but the wire can dig in and be uncomfortable without gloves. Cage has plenty of room for large hands and since its twisted, quite attractive. The scabbard does its job, but it's nothing more than a stitched leather one. Like most of windlass's scabbard. I dont regret buying it.

It's the steel on the inside that counts.

I like what you did with the GSOW. I mean, I reeeeally like it. That's just one more sword on my must-have list.

Thanks. I'm looking to get the other dussack off of KoA. They still have one in stock. It's a fantastic piece. The rapier and dagger are two. Del tin needs more exposure I think. All of them are solid. They ring like a bell.
The wakizashi is fantastic as well. Higher quality over Hanwei imho.
