    Wanted basket-hilt broadsword, dirk & sgian dhu

    As you say this, it strikes me that I knows a stage armourer. Not sure if he does proper cutty things. But I'll find out.

    Wanted basket-hilt broadsword, dirk & sgian dhu

    I've asked about sgian dhu in the past and managed to find a nice blade. I'm currently looking for a basket-hilt broadsword, dirk & sgian dhu. Live blades, early Jacobite era or earlier. "Matching" would be nice but not essential. I can pay... A bit. I'd want change from the cost of a good...

    Ration packs

    TBH I've used them on multiple occasions, going back years, for bulk ration buys reaching into the low thousands cost wise and they've been fine. They're not quick, but they get the job done in my experience.

    Storm Éowyn

    It was very windy here in East Antrim, but frankly nothing that would make me consider changing my way of going. Everything closed, except our corner shop and local where much discussion about everything else being closed took place.

    Anyone still owns / drives LADA?

    There was a point in the late nineties where they started to attract money out of all proportion to their sensible value, even total scrappers. Most of those in the UK disappeared then. Dealers were buying them up and exporting them as parts to the CIS where there were still millions on the...

    Heads up - Post office not sending sharps after 22nd April

    I've had the year check in the past. But on this occasion the YL involved was totally deadpan about me not getting the goodies without ID. And, no word of a lie, I went out at lunchtime today to find a box containing a 15" sirupate khukuri sitting on the doormat. Different courier! :D

    Heads up - Post office not sending sharps after 22nd April

    Resurrected to say I was IDed today by a young lady delivering a kitchen gadget with a blade on behalf of Amazon. There was a little discussion, as I'm in my 50s and it shows, but she was or at least seemed quite willing to walk away and have the item returned if I didn't show her proof of age...

    Government consultation on banning large knives and machetes

    Cut crystal ashtray for me... And I swear if I'd had my shoes on it would have worked.

    Army 9x9 to hot tent.

    Anyone here done it? I assume it's a common conversion and someone will have documented the process.

    Wording of ‘zombie knife and machete’ ban being reported?

    Because it's illegal to market a blade as being for fighting or combat.

    A Rethink of Green

    There would not be a picogramme of concern given. You'd either have paid already or been a thief/vandal for which they're amply covered. Only people you'll annoy is other consumers.

    A Rethink of Green

    Honestly, with the exception of outdoor kit and the odd sports team related item, I shop from the grandad's range at Tesco these days and again, being totally honest, that isn't going to change.

    Wording of ‘zombie knife and machete’ ban being reported?

    It may still result in you doing time. The ridiculousness notwithstanding. I own an Emerson CQC7, it was sold to me, perfectly legally as a CQC7, had it been sold to me as a Close Quarter Combat (model) 7, it would have been illegal to sell and possess. Now that is ridiculous, but there you go.

    A Rethink of Green

    Blackjacks, Fruit Salads, Hulks, Phantoms... And another chewy thing that had secret agents on the wrapper. Grandad used to get me a ten penny mixup from the corner shop and give it to me at bedtime when I stayed with them. At that stage, BTW a "10p mixup" contained at least ten items... But...
