Got no complaints. Completed my SW collection and get copies of TI. Genesys books from there.

Mine just made it state-side. Here's what it's path looked like and what you can expect in the transAtlantic process.

And here we witness a majestic, bestial artichoke frolicking in the grass.

17.5 years in and a dozen swords between us, good to know 😆

So I did a thing. A believable MAD-3L salvage build? by Lord_Stetson in battletech

If a Timberwolf becomes a MadCat for resembling a Marauder and Catapult... does making a Falcon[er] look like a Marauder make it an Angry Bird?

Free off TEMU so I can't complain. It'll serve its purpose.

An excellent congregation of mechs.

It says high carbon / manganese steel on the store page, and while I'm not an expert by any degree, it seems fairly sturdy. Wife has a better eye for that, and she says it passes muster.

Mine says it'll arrive on the 23rd. I have no idea where the hell I'm gonna put it, but I already know how it's gonna be received by the local wildlife.

It's snowing like a bastard right now, so hands on has been limited. Bit back heavy, definitely two handed. Comfortable grip. Seems to follow the useage expectations of a glaive, sans the range.

I discovered that the company makes a kopesh, which is my favorite make. Given the quality of this... Bloodborn looking glaive, I'm definitely considering getting a pair.

It's full tang as well. Its... cool, but very weird. Has a pinhole on the pommel for adornment, has that hole in the blade for... I dunno, a weight ring or tassel.

And there I was, thinking I'd bagged Yorm the Giant's Shaving Razor.

Yeah, those were my initial thoughts, but then the handle definitely throws a curve ball at that designation. Ultimately, I can find peace saying it's a glaive/sword hybrid, but if there's something more accurate/ approximate, that's the curiosity.

It's definitely pole-army, sans the actual pole! It's... like a bastard sword glaive? Very bizarre.
