It’s just nice seeing a happy couple with swords
Unhappy couples with swords would make interesting content.😢
@@PieterBreda that's how they settled marital disputes back in medieval HRE
@@PieterBredayou'll find some pictures of unhappy couples fighting it out in Thalhofer's Fechtbuch❤
Get well soon and keep making your fantastic videos!
A video with Lucy is always a treat.
2:04 And there was *squeezing*! How lewd.
It's not even Christmas!
scotch tape is a brand and often refers to the office style tape. Wider clear tape is often referred to as packing tape
Just don't confuse it with Magic Tape (R), which is often used for spellcasting.
Love watching Matt and Lucy squeeze swords together. :) As for what to acquire? More old swords. The older the better.
"Scotch tape" typically refers to the clear type that would be in a dispenser on your desk or come with a little disposable dispenser. Packing or packaging tape is the wide kind that that might be in a roller hand dispenser ("tape gun"). Hi, Lucy! Like the pigtails. And you could do an ASMR crocheting video.
This is some of the most wholesome content on all of RUclips, and despite that I watched it to the final sword.
woot!
Plz make more of these, always great to see a bunch of new old swords.
I watched to the very end. Honestly, these are some of my favorite videos. Can't get enough of you and Lucy!
Nice collection! Great to see Lucy interacting. I was there thru the end.
I'd like to see more antiques from the 17th century, particularly Swedish, Dutch, and Hungarian weapons.
Good taste
I'm so glad you did another one of these!
After you posted another the other day, I went back and watched a few others because I loved it so much.
Thanks for making your content, Matt. It's fun to see and to get involved in discussion
I made it to the end! That Canadian artillery officer's sword is very pretty, but I liked the Prussian officer's sword most just because you haven't shown a lot of German swords before.
could make a gameshow out of this ,invite a panel of guests and get a couple of teams :)
Yes,!❤ I would stay at home for that show!
We probably call it packing tape.
Scotch tape is narrower, cheaper, and not as strong. It's more for arts and crafts, or taping a note to a Christmas present.
Packing tape is what you use to tape up boxes and other packages, and I can tell you from experience that the type of packaging those swords are in is almost certainly done with packing tape.
That short Scottish garrison sword is one of the coolest little things I've seen. The last sword was a nice addition 👌
I absolutely love to watch you open and speak about what I live for. Swords!!!
The wide kind of clear tape we usually just call packaging tape or packing tape. Scotch tape is the thin not very sticky stuff you use to seal up Christmas present wrapping.
Scotch tape is used here, or for the thin, clear stuff, we also call it "packing" tape, because it's usually used
on boxes for postage.
ASMR stands for autonomous sensory meridian response. It is a tingling sensation that usually begins on the scalp and moves down the back of the neck and upper spine. A pleasant form of paresthesia
As a Frenchman, the second one did confuse me, very unique sword and interesting history. And thanks for the upload, those videos always are a lot of fun :)
Btw your pronunciation of coupe-choux is perfect in places I wouldn't expect, except the first "c" is a "k" sound, which is not the mistake I would most expect an Englishman to make.
*"Coup d'état"* - or just "coup" - are used in normal english, so that should give a clue to the first part of "coupe-choux"
Mate, I just love your channel! I have learnt so much from watching your videos. I find the sword unboxings fascinating. So many amazing swords, some of which I have never seen before. The educational content is amazing. Also, the chemistry between you and Lucy is lovely.
These sword unboxings are easily some of my favorites. Trying to guess along with Lucy as to what you have is a fun game.
ASRM: Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response - which are tingles or chills you get from certain sounds. Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately, I personally have never had any reaction.
Made to the final sword too. Thanks for the content you two!

I always found it strange, I can make myself feel that way at will, but others can't. They used to call it 'frission'; it feels like someone pouring cold water down your back, but without the unpleasantness. You're not missing much. 😋
You bet I've got my eyes on some of these! Had an eye on some that simply disappeared in less than 24hrs, but I, annoyingly, took ill into hospital. The joke at 34:34 took me by surprise! Sat through all seven, commenting prematurely :P
I'm fond of these videos, you're every bit as excited as we are when we pop our shipments open.
I hope you get well soon! 🤍
I made it to the last sword!
Great content to watch/listen to while cooking dinner.
So many cool swords; so many comments on packing tape. Love these unboxings and seeing the next batch of stock. What beautiful objects. Wish I could afford one.
Thank you Matt and Lucy. Cheers!
Utterly brilliant video, I had 3 Swords delivered recently, the utter excitement that you feel unwrapping and seeing them for the first time is priceless. Excellent 🙂
Must seem like Xmas! 😁
Depends on how wide the tape is. Packing tape for the wide clearer stuff, scotch for the thinner more opaque tape.
Also, made it to the final sword.
Always happy to see Lucy.
That clear non-elastic tape is referred to as boxing tape in my neck of the US
More swords and more Lucy? Wonderful!
Matt, I love the little guessing games you do on this type of videos!
I rarely get it right, but it's still fun to try and guess!
I made it to the final sword. I really enjoy the way Matt and Lucy play off each other in the videos they do together.
Especially the christmas/new years specials, where port happens to be involved and conversation gets a bit out of hand. :)
I made it to the final sword, and it's amazing how entertaining sword unboxing is. 😀
Packaging tape is the wide clear tape. Scotch tape is the thin clear tape for gift wrapping paper and such. At least thats what its called in my area of the States.
Cheers
I made it to the final sword - and I enjoyed it being a longer video, and of course with Lucy.
So nice to see you with your Missus
On the topic of antiques that would be interesting to acquire and feature on the channel. I think there would be a large (or diverse at least) audience for nation specific swords of interest outside of the usual British and French staples. Like I recall a Swedish saber you showed recently that generated a lot of discussion from Swedes in the comments as well as a Bavarian saber that was quite interesting.
I think swords from less dominant or shorter lived countries (as far as the sword market goes at least) would be incredibly interesting for both your general audience and would be a large draw for people from that region or with a connection to it.
Finally, a mention of s sword for the zombie apocalypse. Three cheers for Lucy.
At 19:23
Yay !!! made my day this has , love unboxing swords :)
Made it to final sword. Always nice seeing box openings by you two. Hope to see some more indepth on some of these
A longer time ago, in german weapons magazine Deutsches Waffenjournal there was an article about weapons of Royal Saxon Finance officials. Bladed weapons had been used by every saxon finance officer, wirh exeption of Hilfsbeamte/ auxillary officials. In Germany use of police/ security forces sabers ended in 1935, but in Austria last old policemen ended saber use in 1951. There is an 1950 austrian comedy movie, showing an elderly policeman with pistol and saber.
it's another lucy video!!! [edit: and we call it Scotch Tape and we think all Scottish people walk around with it in their pocket]
I made it through, but my brain switched off for a few minutes after you said your work knife wasn’t lockable. I looked down at the scar from my chopped finger, and thought, “No, Matt, no.”
Many of the newer knives developed for the plebians here in restrictive climates have a finger choil or stop to prevent the severing of pokers, thankfully.
Made it to the end. More of these unboxing videos, please but Lucy's presence is a MUST! As for what sorts of antique weapons for you to obtain, do you ever work with bronze-age swords? Or is that outside your customer base? I know that vendors often specialize, but it sure would be interesting to see something from antiquity.
Cant wait for the Skall collaboration videos!
I love watching these, personally, you two are great!
I made it to the final sword!! I love these unboxings. So wholesome!
I've made it to the final sword! What a fun video to tie up the end of the week for me.
Regarding the question of swords that we'd be interested in seeing on the channel/website, I'd love to see an examination of Swedish military swords due to their unusual and distinctive design elements and police swords.
Great work on the channel: I'm always learning new things, such as about piquet-weight swords. That leads me to suggest a video on boys' swords as used by very young and junior army and navy officers, and (drawing on your HEMA expertise) how boys might have fared against physically stronger adults.
And of course I watched the whole thing!
I'm sure my neighbors were thrilled with me shouting at the not-cabbage-chopper
13:55 Weapons we would like to see: morningstars and flails. Be careful practicing with those flails; we don't want to lose you.
Actually, the cut you show with the Prussian sabre is also done with the jian in Wudang sword fighting - and the Wudang jian has no knuckle guard at all.
I made it to the final sword ❤ Loving this!
Final sword.I've been eating lunch while watching.
I MADE IT! to the final sword.
I really enjoy these episodes, seeing what you’ve found! It would definitely be good to see some French swords on offer! 😊
I made it to the last sword. Love it!
Tape depends on width wide is shipping tape. Like 1/2 inch would be scotch
I made it to the final sword. You two are super cute, and inlove this format
Yes, I watched to the end. I love these videos, they're fun! You and Lucy are couple goals :)
Got the 1895 Infantry Officers sword and the Artillery Officers sword 🙂. Thought it was a cabbage chopper 😵💫. Not a clue with the rest! Love these videos. Great fun and always nice to see Lucy again.
That picketweight sword is really beautiful! Probably my favourite of the set. In terms of swords I'd like to see, I'm still rueful about having missed out on the cross-hilted scottish infantry swords a few years ago. Swords aren't really an impulse purchase for me so by the time I made the decision to get one I'd missed my chance.
Unless it's dark with age I'd say that smallsword was a mourning sword. And yes, I was taken in by the coup choux!
Clear tape is simply "Tape" in Freedom english, primarily because we all like duct tape.
Made it to the end! Needed more khukuris :~)
Swords are clearly the answer to a happy marriage
I always enjoy these, nice to see Lucy.
I'd love to see some older swords and daggers,17th or 18th century maybe?, both to hear your comments and to see them for sale on your site! Thanks.
Love the last two swords
The Prussian sabre I recognized straight away because it's pretty much the same design of the Dutch 1912 apart from the "ears" on the grip.
The second one I thought it was a French infantry glaive from the hilt, although the blade really looked like a hunting dagger.
And while it should not be the first adjective of which one would think when describing a weapon, that Scottish artillery sword is really cute.
This my favorite style video...Or maybe the armor....No no the....Thank you for your time, Lucy🤣🤣🤣⚔
The Royal Artillery's motto of Ubique (Everywhere) actually refers to the fact that they were present at every major battle and campaign.
The police sword idea is interesting, I'd be interested to see a historical newspaper/first person account episode about police swords.
I made it to the final sword...
Because of course I did. I love the unboxing vids!
Another informative and enjoyable video ... thanks! Also, gotta mention it ... Matt, you married up.
Made it to the final sword... love the small sword...
I always enjoy the unboxing vids.
Still here at the final sword, I quite enjoy having these on in the background while I work, except I keep stopping to go look at the cool sounding swords!
The lands transport sword is absolutely the first sword you're given in a game before leveling up to something nicer lol
Shashka s and kinjals are cool would love to see more cossackey stuff
I've made it through to the final video. This one was super interesting.
I clicked immediately to find out who the other person in the thumbnail is, the one who isn't I'm Matt Easton.
And I stayed to the final hahaha
I really liked the Shorter sword as well.
I'd love to see more tulwars and pulwars in the shop. It's been a bit since I've seen any Indo-Persian stock on the website.
These are always fun videos, of course I made it to the end!
19:37 I'm not really a small sword guy, but if I had to march anywhere on foot, a picket weight sword sounds excellent. I'd just get a curved one.
Made it! Guessed the 1895. Liked both the artillery swords.
I did make it to the last sword!
Almost got very excited about the German sword, saw the handle and thought it would be a Swedish sword.
So let's see my guesses!
1: I'm guessing a cavalry broadsword or sabre. Something late 18th to mid 19th century.
Close but no cigar XD. Out of curiosity, how does the 95 handle compared to the 97?
2: My guess is a hunting sword.
Ha! I didn't even know the Land Transport Corps was a thing. But I wasn't too far off my guess I suppose, the purpose is similar enough.
3: I guess a late 19th or early 20th century fencing sabre. Oh! Brass knuckle-bow. Pretty compact one too, so maybe something Infantry hangar adjacent?
That's really cool! I'd never heard of Picket-Weight before. On a practical note I'd misjudged the length of it, and the guard looked narrower at first.
4: Getting my guess in at the last moment. Prussian Infantry sabre.
That's my closest yet, and it's a bit of a cheat as I'd put in my other guesses before they were fully unwrapped. But I did recognize that stirrup guard from images of other Prussian swords
5: That hilt is terribly familiar. I'm guessing a mid 19th century British Light-Cavalry sabre, but I'm not certain.
I would never have guessed Canadian Artillery. It's a beauty though!
6: I have no guess for this one
Ah! Very interesting
7: Oh that is gorgeous!
The symbol there looked a bit like an anchor to me. So maybe the owner was involved in shipping?
I made it to the last sword, I like these unboxing videos.
Made it to the last sword and in one sitting :D love those videos
I wonder how many times Lucy burst out laughing while you were recording for the thumbnail.
I made to the final sword. Lucy did great.
I made it to the final sword, all the way from Finland! Cheers!
Made to the final sword 🤓 Agree that the artillery short sword looked really interesting and from Edinburgh.
Scotch Tape is also a brand name, owned by 3M. You're cutting packing tape in the American scheme. [Final sword, of course!]
Made it to the end. As a fencer (ex fencer at my age) I'd go for the smallsword
On the Small-Sword, Celtic crosshatched rope-work above and below a heart with an axe centred, with a feather cap (?) above the heart.
Does look heraldic, yes.
Canada is two-thirds "British" and one-third "French." We have two founding nations but the British came out on top. We have two official languages and we are currently members of the Commonwealth of Nations which arose after the Empire dissolved. I am "Anglo," and an "Anglophile," partially bi-lingual and, indeed, the British influence is still strong in Canada however we did learn to drive on the correct side of the road. Cheers!
I MADE IT,wouldn't miss an episode with Lucy.
She looks like a woman who likes a big sword
