Post yer sworpics!
So. Since all my swordfag friends made me feel left out, and since I really DID need something more substantial than a pocketknife (Knives. Big, shiny, fuck-off ones.), I finally went and bought myself a nice effective blade.
Here it is.
Who needs twice the length when you've got three times the girth?
Where's yours? POST!

Holy Fuck! This is going to sound weird, but I've been having dreams about this knife. Though it didn't have that hole in the blade, it looked almost identical to this.
On a side note, you look disturbingly like Will Sasso in that pic.

This guy, right? I don't know who he is, but I'll cop to the likeness.
Also, you've been having dreams about my knife? Sexual connotations abound... which we'll ignore. The knife is pretty cool, though, since it has the same steel as a regular sword, just packed into less length.
POST YOUR OWN SWORDPICS, dammit! I DEMANDS it!

Aw, thanks for the admiration! They're not super-expensive works of art like Fiss has, though. Mine are worth $40 and $50, and they're glorified cleavers. (But oh, what cleavers!) They're suited to my "just fuck it up" style, and they can render other weapons worthless pretty fast, since "light and well-edged" fails against "edged metal club," but they're heavy and clumsy. A skilled user can dance around 'em with relative ease. Of course, I'd only have to hit the dancing skilled user once...
Anyway, my point is, I love 'em because they're basically axes in sword form. They're what I've been looking for. You need to find some good (ie practical, not "lookit my penis is big because my sword has jaggies on it") weapons that fit with your style. Fiss has a katana. Spike has... well, a spike. Pod has a staff. Amon has a double-blade cane sword. I have cleavers. Some people like knives, some like European longswords, some like butterfly knives, or scimitars, or clubs, or whatever. The important thing is that they work, they work for YOU, and they make you happy. No weapon is better than another because of its form. It's the user, yaknow?

Good points (pun intended) Toze. ^_^ Besides, some of the best armour breakers look like a sword and an axe had a horrible disturbingly awesome love-child. Good stuff man. Despite possible penis-jokes, they ARE useful and DO have a use...most notibily with cavalry and armour.
And knuckle-scissors > Barehanded. ^_^ Amazing what kind of kick ass shit you can find at the local hardware store that can be easily used in a 17th century battlefield....

Hmm, I learned something new today.
This is a claymore
But it turns out the thing I thought was a claymore is actually similar to the Rajput Sosun Pattah, which is actually quite narrow...
I guess the sword I want is something like a 6 foot long version of the Ram Dao.

Good collection there Amon.
Tell me, is that one on the left a cane sword?

To ATC: Yes, yes it is a cane sword
To Tenryu: There's no such thing as too many sharp edges

Hm! Nice collection! When'd you get the cane, the saber, and the broadsword on the left? I knew about the double-blade and the axe already... had I seen the katana before?
