For any other man's,
Nor that I will be ashamed
Of my work torn hands-
For I have chosen the path I tread
Knowing it would be steep,
And I will take the joys thereof
And the consequences reap.

Would like the 1650 hanger better with a knuckle bow and a stag horn grip or at least a solid grip. Would certainly buy one.

Obviously the last option and you're going to buy one of these.
if not,
still buy one.
Personally I'd pick the Broadsword.
