Final Countdown--6 days until Cincinnati Albion Round Table
Hi folks!
It looks like the weather is good for the Round Table this Saturday, so a little reminder, you should bring gloves for handling swords, insect repellant, and sunscreen as needed.
I have a list of Albion swords that will be there, not everything on the wish list made it--too much being shipped to customers! But we will have:
Gaddhjalt

Gotland

Templar

Prince
[ Linked Image ]
Squire

Brescia Spadona

additionally, we will have the privately owned swords on hand to examine:
Regent
[ Linked Image ]
Landgraf
[ Linked Image ]
Baron
[ Linked Image ]
Sovereign

Also, feel free to bring your own swords to cut with, and other cutting media besides pool noodles, if you wish.
On hand to examine and handle will also be some of my personal stuff, like my Manning Imperial Hod Hill sword and Celtic spear, Patrick Barta Celtic pw sword, Al Massey/Jake Powning Athro leafblade, Al Massey/Albion anthro leaf, an HR Replikate custom Celtic spear, some Irish Arms, Del Tin, and MR stuff, a rather ramshackle 15th cent Gothic harness, a couple Celtic helms of various make, and handful of Celtic
shields,and small sheaf of spears of various makes, etc, etc. Main focus as always is Albion and their sword line, but there will be plenty to examine and discuss.
Alex, do you think you can make it, and if so, do you need a ride? Joe Fults mentioned that he could bring you down, if you need it.
See you all soon, and any questions feel free to e-mail me or call.
Cheers,
Nate
