Re: Waste not, want not...

That's a good point. IMO it's a lot like fishing lures. It sucks to lose one, but they're expendable to a point and you have to come to terms with the fact that of you use 'em enough, you're going to lose a few.

Oof. That first picture physically pained me, but the new bodkins look great!

Re: Windlass Warbrand re-released

Oof. Now that was drawn by someone who knew what spilling entrails look like. *squick* Or maybe they just really loved spaghetti back then. :P Could blades really cleave maille and helms like that? On the one hand, I'd expect poetic license.. then again, the other depictions look frighteningly real...

Re: Windlass Warbrand re-released

That's actually pretty nifty. Agreed. It's a pretty rare reproduction, too. I've only seen one other company reproduce this piece from the Maciejowski Bible, and for a Windlass it's pretty accurate. http://www.medievaltymes.com/courtyard/images/maciejowski/leaf10/otm10va&b.gif I'm waiting for K...

Windlass Warbrand re-released

Hey all, figured I'd give you guys a heads up on a neat and inexpensive blade. Windlass discontinued it years and years ago (as is their standard practice) and I've been trying to get a hold of one since. Very hard to come by on the used market...I've seen maybe 2 for sale in the last 7 or so years....

Re: Review: "Elfin" Rattan Recurve by Bows of the Risen Son

Aaron: maybe you've addressed this elsewhere on the forums before, but I can't recall: where did your bow come from? I posted about it, but it was a couple of years ago now. I got it from Rudderbows, though they no longer make this model. Jim said mine was probably the last one he was going to make...
