Good updates as usual and another good reason to donate to help pay the hosting costs of this site. I already have two Topics threads I can bump about the donation drive but I'm shameless in taking a " free shot " at a third topic to encourage people to support this great site.
Feature articles and reviews are also a great example of why we should make the effort to support this site.
And now to go to the other two other Topics and bump them also. ;) :p :lol:

Thanks! It's always nice to know the effort is appreciated. :) Collection galleries, articles, and reviews were here before the forums were and are still an important part of what we do.

I've found that the reviews that are most interesting to me are the non-sword ones. They have opened up a few new avenues of research and interest. Once again the newest are well written and interesting, something that I am beginning to take for granted on myArmoury. Thanks for a series of great reads.
'I saw young Harry, -with his bevor on,
His cuisses on his thighs, gallantly arm'd,-
Rise from the ground like feather'd Mercury,
And vaulted with such ease into his seat,
As if an angel dropp'd down from the clouds,
To turn and wind a fiery Pegasus,
And witch the world with noble horsemanship.'

Jason,
Thanks! :) It's nice to know it's appreciated. I feel that sometimes sword reviews get predictable ("This an Oakshott Type _____ which was popular in the....."). Daggers offer some different ways to go. My own collecting has involved a lot of daggers over the last few years and I've enjoyed diving into the topic.
