I'm new to the forums, but have been collecting for some time. Attached an image of some of my horde after childproofing the house. I'm starting to get the bug to pick up some new pieces. It's not normally my style, but the Kingston Arms Cutlass looks interesting to me.

I like the method you put them on display. The Pile O' Blades sadly is an underrated gem. Also welcome.

Welcome to the forum. That's quite a collection you have going. I see a kukri and I have a thing about kukris.

Wow, beautiful treasure pile! You'll have to tell us what they are, I'm interested in the Vikingish sword that has the hilt on the lower left...

It appears that is photoed on a leather background. If so some leather conditioner will save it from further cracking and $$$$. I’ve found they all work, it’s only boils down to preference. Couldn’t see the kukri well but it appears to be asking for a treatment also.

Where did you get that migration era sword on the left? It's an Albion Kragehul Bog Migration. I picked up in the early 2000's when before their more standardized sword line-up.

Welcome to the forum! I love that Celtic Anthropomorphic Sword. I'd like to find one like that.

I watched Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves today so I'm really digging the Brazil nut on the Saint Maurice sword right now
