Well, I've thought of doing this for a while, so here it is. A collecting topic. Basically, if you collect something, whether it's rocks, shells, pokemon cards, etc., this is where to post it. Pictures are fine; like the saying goes: a picture's worth a thousand words! And we'd like to see what you collect too. Nothing is too unusual.


I collect weapons. Swords, knives, etc, largely foreign in origin. Stuff my dad's brought back, or I saw someplace. I'll take a bunch of photos and put them on soon.

and here they are!


A knife my dad got on a mission trip to India


something my mom brought back from Thailand


Another knife, this one brought back by my Dad from Ethiopia


Crossbow from Thailand, brought back by dad.


another pic of it


My first sword, purchased in the Largest Castle in Austria. "Excalibur" is engraved on the pommel.


pic of dragons on the Crosspiece


My newest sword, purchased at a Highland Games near where I live. Its a flamberge, which was mentioned in Eragon, when Brom, Eragon, and Jeod were about to raid the castle for information. Now I know what it is!


You grip it with on hand on the handle, another on the leather between the two crossguards. This was done for better control.


Curvy Blade


Newest addition to my armory, the spear from Ethiopia.


The tip



Sorry for the size. Allows for better viewing, I suppose.

You would like it over here. If you go in the old souks (marketplace) you can find some very nice knifes (old fashion). But the best place to get them would be to go in Oman, a neighboring country, where they have a lot more souks where you can find them.

nice! I've only got one boomerang, one my friend brought back for me when he went to Australia. I like it though

And louis--I bet I would! I like older weapons anyhow. More authentic and interesting. Bet I could find some good stuff there.

ooo, nice topic. i also collect weapons, swords in knives in general. I get all my stuff from the renessance (spelling) festival.

Nice! They've got some good stuff, too. Only been to one, and years ago. You should post some pics! I'd like to see some stuff.

Really cool wepons siege! i liked the knives the best, that spear was pretty nice also.
my parents would murder me if i started bringing wepons into my house.
