    Licensing for Knife Sellers or Importers

    As a mod im loath to lock threads unless they break the forum rules and become abusive. This one has managed to skirt the edges of political discourse and statistics without stepping across the line. It will inevitably become just another thread that has run its day.

    Calling all Ninjas.

    Having trained in Ninjutsu, Budo Taijutsu or its various other daft names for the past 30 plus years. We hardly ever used so called ninja swords. A vast array of styles of katana. The right tool for the job. Most of the more exotic historic battle field weapons were banned in the 80s -90s...

Their industrial tumble dryer only takes 5-10 minutes to dry it enough to store loose without smelling of mushrooms. The other customers weren’t happy...

    North of Plymouth is a lovely area although it’s often wet. Seems to have its own weather systems. Always good to seem more meets advertised. Whilst no somewhere I’d get to regularly it might be nice to hangout occasionally.
