Got Medieval Swords?

May 8, 2008 on 4:05 am | In General |

As a collector of (mostly) medieval swords, I have found that historical replicas make up most of the blades in my collection. I donâ€™t really discriminate from the middle ages and the Renaissance either. Both periods are fair game when I am searching for something new to add to my wall. My favorite (and some of my first) blades were replicas of Viking swords. I liked that they had a unique look and feel. I was also fascinated by the Nordic culture, so it was natural for me to gravitate towards swords like that. I moved on to collect some long swords as well, and then a rapier. My collection continued to grow, and before I knew it, the wall in my office looked like a museum. It has now actually crept from the office along the hall and into the bedroom. I have even broadened my horizons and started collecting from different movies as well some great old cartoons (thatâ€™s right, even cartoons have sword replicas nowadays!). It is good fun and the healthiest addiction of which I can think.
