      Re: Your pre-gunpowder weapon of choice

      I have one of these, given to me from a friend who lives in Alaska, but I don't know much about it.
      do you? I kinda think it had something to do with carving whale blubber.

      Yours looks culinary. Mine looks manly.

      I think that the Roman Short Sword would be adequate for melee range especially if equipped with two:

      The romantic in me prefers the more civilized use of the rapier or longsword. Errol Flynn's Robin Hood, Stewart Granger's Scaramouche, even Danny Kaye's The Court Jester. I know that isn't reality, but still...
      Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.

      I believe that God put me on this Earth to accomplish a certain number of things. Right now I am so far behind I will never die.

      Ancient flamethrowers look like that had some potential

      TIME OUT!!!

      I leave this thread unattended and out hanging for about a year, and they bring in a cannon into the conversation!?? UNACCEPTABLE!!!


      Cease from all actions, or it will be the Camorra BATS for you violaters!

      Why would you boot lots of sharp and pointy objects? Sounds like a good way to hurt your foot. Are you a podiatrist trying to create some business?

      Which is worse... That you went looking for that or that you had it saved and were waiting to use it?
