Better get your fedora before you start getting into swords.

At one point I owned like, I don't know, 7 or 8 swords. Not including things like machetes and larger knives like barongs. They were all Chinatown-junk-tier display swords though. Pure autism.

There's something really simple and satisfying about a sword. We used them for centuries and centuries it must be part of our genetic memory.

Guns can misfire and they run out of bullets eventually and it's easy to miss, but a sword is a sword you just stab and swing that shit around. It's also as strong as you are.

It's your money, unless you're a cucked freedom-hating communist faggot, you should spend it on what you want.

Bowie knives are also cool.

>>37209908
buy it as a display piece or don't buy it at all

>>37209908
It's a phase men go through.
You look like a comepetle virgin if you put it on your wall though.

>>37209908
I own one just like that, it's comfy as fuck. Did some research, found a training routine I can do in my front yard -- look up the Chicago Historical Fencing website. It's great exercise, especially for your arms and shoulders. The sword on the wall is a great conversation piece, people always want to take pictures with it. Also the act of oiling the blade and leather every few weeks is nice and meditative. 9/10 purchase

get a practical sword like a concealed kukri under your shoulder. Can hack a normies head off before they even know they are in danger.

I unironically own a katana. I traded someone for it when I was in middle school.

>>37209908
Why not join a local hema group?

>>37209908
Because swords dude.

Numbers confirm what history already confirms

Maybe I'll make a helmet too so if somebody breaks in I can pretend to be a crusader.

post your (metal) sword

If you can make a sword you can make a display

I really don't want to get up from my computer right now. I'm really comfortable and it's going to take a while to settle in properly again if I get up.
>>37211582
I could, but I don't really want to. I put things off a lot but I was excited to do the sword so I did it. My PC has been fucked up for a year because I'm too lazy to swap out a hard drive.

>>37209908
I own a sword, it's pretty nice. Fun to cut up pumpkins and water jugs and whatnot. In hindsight though, I would have rather I spent the money on a more practical weapon like a bowie knife or a kukri.

>too lazy to swap out a hard drive
You remind of my father and everything I hate in myself. Stop that right fucking now, it's going to ruin your life.

>>37211810
I ruined my life a good decade ago. All this does is make some of my games run worse and annoy me. I'll fix it eventually, maybe.
