    So I need an edged weapon to march?

    What should I bring


    Katana?

    Broadsword?

    Rapier (swept hilt or cup hilt, your preference)?

    Victorian officer's dress sword?

    Dress lion's head sabre?

    Spanish court sword?

    Would swords be too commonplace?

    How about...

    Fighting hand axes (Francesca and 14th century knight's hatchet)?

    Paired sword guarded fighting knives?

    Modern jutte?

    Jutte gata hachi wari?

    Boomarang?

    Jo?

    8 foot long spear?

    Just let me know I see if I can find something suitable ....




    Oh and would you like a main gauche with that?


    Cheers

    Bump (Games are tomorrow!)

    Alan,

    I think I will leave my rapier at home (with this weather it will be less a weapon and more likely a lightning rod! )

    Cheers

    We're having the same weather in the mid-Atlantic. Not so sure now about wearing a $ 500.00 kilt to the Celtic Weekend when I'm likely to be up to my selvedge in mud. :confused:

    Dee,

    I know how you feel. My Matt Newsome 5 yard knife pleated 16 oz. Galbraith kilt is on the Fed Ex. truck heading toward my house this very minute! But the thought of getting it drenched in the rain is unappealing (especially because I want to wear it to a Scottish country Dance later that evening.)

    I'd better check the weather channel.

    Cheers
