- Who doesn’t love a good, solid, plain fighting sword. Not a particularly large weapon. Doesn’t need to be flashy. Just needs to do it’s job, with devastating affect.by /u/Y_Dyn_Barfog on September 24, 2022 at 5:08 pm

- Make commemorative swords the new normby /u/LordSparks on September 24, 2022 at 3:33 pm
I saw this tweet about a PhD graduate whose partner got her a commemorative sword since Finnish doctoral graduates apparently used to get a sword on graduating and it’s made me think that there’s no reason that commemorative swords shouldn’t be the new norm. Think about it! It’d would make a much better 18th or 21st birthday memento than a glass or stein you’ll never use but don’t stop there! Make the 10th wedding anniversary the the broadsword anniversary. (the bladiversary?) Been with the company 5 years? Here’s a commemorative shortsword with the company logo on it! Get a longsword or a shield when you retire. Just bought your first house? The realtor presents you with the customary realty rapier. Birth of your first child? Congratulatory bastard sword! 🤣 Bought a car? Sword based on the manufacturing country with the badge as the crossguard! Japanese cars include a katana, zweihander if the car’s German, a goem for Korean cars, the list goes on! submitted by /u/LordSparks [link] [comments]

Swords simply cannot compare to the power, range, and versatility of a poleaxe (the best pre-industrial weapon of all time). What do the swordheads think about this submitted by /u/Tape-Delay [link] [comments]

- how to remove hiltby /u/Bawstahn123 on September 24, 2022 at 12:50 am
So, I bought a “18th century French Grenadier Infantry Sword” from Kult of Athena, in hopes of yanking the handguard off, replacing it with iron and wood and turning it into an American hanger. My question is: how the hell do I get the hand-parts off? According to Kurt of Athena, the little knob at the end is a threaded nut, so if I can get that off I should be able to slide the whole brass handguard off. I just can’t get the nut off. Any suggestions? Here is a link to the KoA page for the sword, because apparently I can’t link photos from my phone. https://www.kultofathena.com/product/18th-century-french-grenadier-infantry-sword/ submitted by /u/Bawstahn123 [link] [comments]

- Where are the best places to look for antique sabers?by /u/AnAngrySTRPlayer on September 23, 2022 at 10:59 pm
Seems like they churned those things out in huge numbers in the 19th and early 20th century, so I would expect supply to surpass collector demand. I’ve even seen videos which suggest that the reproduction market for sabers is so poor because originals are cheap enough to make high end replicas not worth pursuing. submitted by /u/AnAngrySTRPlayer [link] [comments]
