  • My newest prized possession

    For quite a while I've wanted to get a Gil Hibben Double Shadow fantasy knife, but every time I've looked they always go for a little more than I'm willing to pay. But I managed to score one for an even $50 shipped on eBay.



    I was kinda surprised when it arrived. This thing is bigger than I thought (11.5 inches from end to end) and quite heavy. I mean, I knew this was a REAL knife, but this thing has some real heft to it. Me likey alotey.

    I also picked up a United Cutlery "Phoenix" which is a knock-off of the Klingon "D'K Tahg" daggar from Star Trek. That one's over a foot long and even has the side blades that pop in and out.

    I'm tempted to pose with these while wearing my Staples uniform (as in "SCs beware!"), but I don't want to look like I'm advocating violence towards SCs. And NO, I'm not stupid enough to take either to work. Both will stay in their scabbards, which will be in their boxes, and kept in a safe place.

        Deadly weapons and unconventional weapons, mostly. What can I say, I like excitement.

          Prepare to have your pants blown off (Figuratively speaking that is)



          And my favourite blades




          The largest of my stuff is 5 and a half feet and the smallest, well, those are the glaives that are just under a foot when fully extended.

            Congrats Dave..the blade is nice.

            I know how you feel. I had my little heart set on a moro kriss blade a few years back, but i kept procrastinating on buying it. When i finally was able to it was DISCONTINUED!!! I thought I was going to have a heart attack...it took me 3 MORE years to be able to find the exact one I wanted (on a weapons auction site similar to eBay) and we've lived happily ever after since.. )

            I also have a rockin weapons collection....my favorite are the kamas.

                  Surely being small in a strong breeze is actually a good thing, since your centre of gravity is lower.

                  I got that and a matching 2 seater for £100 both leather, who am I to complain or be bothered what colour it is

                      Well, if things don't get moving on the settlement from the truck that ran me over, we may be bringing a bunch of cannons to Houston to "persuade" the trucking company a little bit...

                        OK, just to be silly, I did get a picture with the two knives while in my Staples shirt. I think I look kinda dumb in it (might've helped if I'd shaved).

                        If anyone wants to see it, I'll post it.


                        And I think I'm going to try and pick up two more Hibben Fantasy Series knives, the Raptor and the Jackal.
