QUOTE(mirocu @ Nov 26 2019, 02:07 PM) But I'm not sure I wat it out in the open. A thing like that; might wanna keep it in the gun safe. If I have room for it I mean, if I were robbing you, I’d grab it, lol

I think I'm done with expensive purchases for the time being Wise birb is wise.

QUOTE(mirocu @ Dec 1 2019, 07:42 AM) Besides, rightly handled, the katana can be used in close quarters as well.. It does feel nice to swing, btw. It really feels that it's made for two-handed slashing! Nice!

Here's a relevant teaser - * As soon as we entered the Arboretum District, I noticed the distinctive armor and katana of a Blade. He was absorbed in contemplation but I recognized the Redguard’s face and drew my mare to a stop. “Baurus?” His eyes met mine. “Well met, Buffy. I’m glad to see you unharmed.” “Likewise, Baurus.” After a moment of awkward silence I added, “Forgive me but you seem troubled.” He winced. “For the second time, I have failed to protect my Emperor. First Uriel and now Martin – each of them perished under my protection.” “There are some perils no one can defend against. I have fought alongside you and would trust my life to you, brave Blade.” His courteous smile did not reach his eyes. I tried to shift the subject somewhat. “What will happen now?” “Well, word is the Council has declared the end of the Third Era. I suppose Chancellor Ocato will be named Potentate. As for the Blades, we will do what we have always done – serve Talos.” “May the Divines guide your path, Baurus.” “And yours, Buffy.” *

Metatron's evaluation of The Knight of Hope, which turned me on to a most interesting channel I'd not known the existence of until now. Watched the clip (short-film) afterward. I disagree with Metratron's assessment of its opening being too long/unneeded. The lady does excellent acting, putting many big-budget actors to shame. The whole presentation is very well done. Bravo! Guess I ought to link the film itself. Here it be, The Knight of Hope. (These guys took part in the making of Kingdom Come: Deliverance, a solid plus in my estimation.)

QUOTE(Decrepit @ Dec 19 2019, 11:29 AM) Metatron has published a Top 10 Most Effective Medieval Weapons video. I'll cut to the chase and say that my personal favorite grabs first place. Got to respect a list like that. <grins> My second-favorite medieval melee weapon comes in at number nine, perfectly understandable considering the criteria he bases his evaluations on. Poleaxes are indeed badass.

Got a new knife on Friday! It’s a Hudson Bay camp knife by El Salvadoran company Condor Tool & Knife. I already own a smaller Bushlore knife from them, but I wanted a larger knife that could serve the function of a small hatchet or tomahawk and still do some tasks that you need a knife for. Yesterday, I took it out to our future wedding site to do some work and chopped up some fallen 3-4 inch diameter branches. Some of the branches were pretty hard, but the edge stayed the same as when I got it. Also threw it at a live pine tree and got it to stick a couple of times. I’m sure if you actually know how to throw knives it would perform well, lol. The knife even comes with a nice leather sheath. All in all, very pleased with the purchase.
