So fellow SBGers, who else is going to CombatCon this year and what are you participating in? It'd be great to actually meet other forumites in person.
I actually live in Las Vegas, but this is the first year I can make it.

I'll be there participating in open cutting. Nervous as it'll be my first event of the sort.

Sharp blades are good to have, if Shire-folk go walking, east, south, far away into dark and danger.

Not going this year, but I am thinking about it for next year.

For those who went to CombatCon, who was there actually selling swords? Trying to decide if I should go next year and if so, how much $$$ I'll need to bring.

This year it was Albion, Sterling Armoury, and Valiant Armoury selling sharp swords. Some previous years they've had Arms & Armor and Angus Trim.

I guess if I will ever buy from Sterling, that would be the place I'd have to do it. Their website is not particularly useful (and doesn't want to load today).

They are selling some inventory via real swords facebook group at this very moment. Left over stock from the event. There's some really nice options available www.facebook.com/groups/725184348172596/?ref=share&mibextid=NSMWBT

I don't use fb, so that doesn't help Here is the page of their store, you can see all the pics and prices and etc, even without your own facebook account. And it has his email in part of the page description you can email him about sword you like. Or I can message him for you on Facebook and put him in touch with you. www.facebook.com/sterlingarmory?mibextid=ZbWKwL

Good to see that there is an email. I will wait until CombatCon 2024 or a classified resale here. With 3 swords still pending (2 Albions and a Damian Sulowski), I am not planning any additional purchases this year (unless I build a few more sword racks first).
