I was at a little sword get together today with about 8 others who were mostly into antiques, had a great time! And just to think on how much history that was in the living room was just mind numbing...And one of the guys I met is a member here but has not posted (Albion should look forward to a sale) I did not take notes (should have!) and the indoor lighting was not the best...so here are some pics from today
