Eric, you are too lucky.
Nathan, are you sure it is a good idea to put so much tension and emotional stress on a bunch of sword crazy people? :D
Congrats. Eric. Great contest Nathan.

Perception is everything. Bah. I'd love to have won the GBS.. or the new Basket-hilt that just got announced today.. but imagine if that ever happened.. appearances are everything.

I also took advantage of A&A's discount; I ordered their Viking Spear & 12 Century Winged Spear, they gave me a good deal on shipping by shipping the 2 spears in one package. (Shipping 7 foot packages is not cheap!)
They were out of stock of "BRITTANY SPEARS". ( Sorry couldn't help myself.... Joke !)
Great contests: Thank you A&A and Nathan for making this site so interesting.
You can easily give up your freedom. You have to fight hard to get it back!
