 |
|
Since I recently acquired three new swords and parted with 3 or 4 pieces as well, and since I was inspired to copy Nathan and Chad - I thought I would post a few shots of my new and perhaps improved collection. The collected group continues to evolve toward mostly 15th century related items, but some outliers remain.Sorry for the picture quality - not great lighting.
The collection picture from 12 O'clock, moving clockwise:
A&A Writhen Rapier
A&A English Longsword
A&A Medieval knife
A&A custom glaive
A&A Medieval dagger
Patrick Barta type XX
Justin King rondel dagger
Peter Lyon Type XVIII
Manning Imperial Type XX
A&A custom rondel dagger
A&A Henry V (hollow ground version)
Justin King Ballock dagger
A&A custom Type XX

Nice collection - I particularly like the custom A&A glaive with crosspiece...I've been eyeing that on their site for a while.

Very nice collection indeed Gordon. If I did not know better I would guess you are a big fan of the type XX.  I have to say that it is very nice to see peoples collections as they have been posted recently. I also agree with Addison about the glaive as I have also been eyeing it on A&A's website.

If you notice - 3 type XX and 3 type XVIII. (but yes - Type XX has always been a favorite of mine). Thanks for the comments. The glaive is a pretty scary thing - I left it with the swords since it really is a "sword on a stick".

Very nice. I have already stated my praise for the Peter Lyons sword, but I also think the custom AA type XX looks pretty sweet. That's not saying that each piece isn't nice, just that those two stick out for me.
