Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Black Week, Black November... Discounts since the start of November. Did you buy any swords or related stuff?
I got a Klingon Bat'leth, cheap stainless steel repro. In the thread about possible interesting CS machetes I had the idea of a Bat'leth machete. This one's price now was not far away from better CS machetes, so I couldn't resist. It's cheaply made and I think a CS machete would be much better.
And I ordered a KA Renaissance Sidesword. It's very overpriced here in Germany, but with 20% off it's only expensive! It was out of stock so I have to wait a few weeks. After my overweight dumbbell Munich I wanted a nimble sidesword.

Ordered a Deepeeka Scandinavian Vendel Chieftain sword from KOA and just in time because the price just went back up again today. I also ordered a Accolade Knights Templar sword from MRL. Unfortunately I ordered it yesterday at 20% off today it's 25% off. $17.77 down the drain.

No swords for me. (Unless you count my Windlass Arbedo and daisho of CS Tac Japanese machetes.) All I got was a sword belt specifically for the Arbedo, and I have to add extra holes to the scabbard belts yet. All the good sales hit when I'm tapped. That's okay though. Gimme a couple of months and there will be plenty of new bad-assery coming my way. I may order some cheap stuff from Amazon just to hold me over until the $$$-flow starts coming back in. EDIT: That, and MAMA wants a new car.

Bought a Hanwei Oxtail Dao. It's now one of my favorite swords. Aggressive distal taper simply does wonders: it's agile, fast, and the blade is extremely stiff, yet very thin towards the tip. Can't wait to do a little cutting with it.
I'm also going to grab two daggers from Tod Cutler: the Scottish Dirk and the Mid Status Bollock Dagger.

I may grab a Tod's dagger myself, once my money gets right. I've got swords out the a**, but I'm deficient in the dagger department. Maybe a nice rondel or the Mary Rose recreation. .......

Just give me good gas-mileage and cheap insurance, with the ability to get from Point A to Point B....I'm good. My 1967 Shelby GT-500 Mustang will have to wait........
