So many things, so little money!!

I was thinking of making a targe myself as well. I have two Baskethilt broadswords tempting my plastic everyday. One of these days I will just order them.

Targes are actually pretty easy to make. This is my first:

is the targe a wood center finished by leather? If not what material did you use or would you suggest? This will be for display only, and not for stopping anything (except for the odd dish if my wife find out about the creidt card bill

)

Here's my broadsword, made by ArmourClass of Glasgow, Scotland:

And my dirk, by Glenn McClain:

My best sword is an Irish Hand and a half that is battle ready. Would like to get a nice baskethilt claymore some day. Too busy buying kilts, and toy soldiers with kilts and little itty bitty claymores for the soldiers.
