Visiting family and too much eating and not enough training, the feels! Always nice for the good memories made though. ooof on the mower, that's impressive it stayed as well as it did, and says a lot about the quality for what it is intended for.
Oh no! but good to see that most of the sword still seems to be somewhat intact. I can't imagine that was too good for the mower haha. How much does a good sword usually cost?
It’s made properly and from good steel. I am sure the mower blades were dinged up, but on these field mowing versions they tend to be tough. A new sword will be $600-800 Canadian or more depending on where I get it from. Then there’s the wait time… I’ll manage, somehow.
It's never just one thing, is it? Hopefully this series of mishaps is over with. Hang in there! (And the new contestant for the Katana vs Longsword or Rapier vs Saber or Sword vs Spear debates is... Industrial Mower Blade?!!!)
I haven’t even talked about my hip issue yet. So a lot of misfortune but yet I endure. I think the finals of the battle are going to be industrial mower versus wood chipper. All other blades shall fall to their greatness!
Thank you. I’ll hope for the clearing skies after the rain and bow of many colours, proverbially, and in the case of the current heat wave here, literally!
Sorry for your sword. When I put equipment on the ground it goes on a tarp or an old surplus poncho. That way I know where it is and it does not get left behind.
Hi! Well. There are lots of different pieces from various places. If you want sharp items, you could check out Kult of Athena, Albion Swords, SGT Blades in Canada, or find a bladesmith near you. Training weapons can come from lots of places. Sigi, Kvetun, Regenyei, and Krieger are the more popular forges but there are others. If you know what you’re looking for I’d be happy to provide some leads! Just reply and let me know!

Impressive quality for sure, and maybe one day I can get a new one. But that’s well into the future.
Sad to hear about the sword for sure, but yeah it's quite impressive that it's still in one piece!
Impressive and depressing at the same time!

Well, best of luck getting a new one :)
Thank you. It might take a while but I will get there!

aww no, so sorry to hear all your bad news and condolences :(
here's hoping there's at least a rainbow at the end of this storm for you Ɛ>

*hugs* if it makes you feel better I somehow lost the pommel off my rapier while I was cleaning it. Just the pommel. It rolled off my balcony.
Hugs always appreciated! And oh no, poor pommel! That’s very essential. Hopefully you were able to replace it.

It’s a smart idea and one I will have to use. As for the sword, the smith thinks he can repair it. So good news may appear!
That’s super sucky, Lauren. Of course, now I’ll be asking you if you have your swords after every class!
Ha, yes please ask that because everything left for longsword that I have belongs to the club, and we can’t lose any of that!
Where’s a place to buy some of the weapons you show ?

@@LaurenDangerShaw thanks ! I did find a mace at Athena, also want a warhammer. Will try to find blacksmith in Nebraska . Keep up the nice videos .
@@firchkn7932 I will do my best, as my hip heals, anyway. Onward to cool new topics I hope!
Are you married
Haha, well no, just old and uncooperative and too busy with swinging swords to worry about such things at the moment.
@@LaurenDangerShaw I gotcha :)
