Sorry.
I'm going to get someone to make me a proper cutlass- not out of e45 (is that the one?) sprung, just normal stainless I think. So not battle ready, but pretty.

there was a whole medieval marketplace in one of the little courtyards, and there was a big blacksmith's stall where they made knives, swords, axes and such before your very eyes, using old methods. It was fucking excellent. I stood there for quite a while watching a bloke make a scary looking knife.

If it looks like it'll kill me, I want to play with it. This includes sharks, tigers, bears, crocodiles, combine harvesters and ebola.

Truth be told The only good place for 400 stainless is on the wall as display ( and it is why there will never be an import issue with them as they are ornaments )
But at least have the sense to find a full tang blade if you plan on waving it around.
The spot welded Yank stuff is horrific.

There are plenty of hand forged swords on ebay. I just don't think that the Captain wishes to spend that kind of money.

larping delights me. I may have to try it one day, but I fear that I would be frowned upon as some sort of tourist who hasn't actually played WoW or Warhammer before.

I have more swords, armour and guns for show than you can shake a stick at. I don't like to spend a lot either. You should have talked to me sooner.
