I like swords from history, they seem pretty neat.

I like swords from history. My personal favorite would be Samurai swords and traditional Japanese swords.

Well, I'm sure you all know what I'm like with swords... I personally prefer the middle age and Lord of the Rings type swords. I would get some if they didn't cost in an excess of $100...

I really like Swords. But I don't have any. >< They are very awsome, though, and I have done some research about them.

I'v got a standard military combat knife a friend from Iraq gave me.....thats the closest thing to a sword I have. Swords you find in collectible stores are usually in the thousand dollar range. Much too expensive for meh.

I love swords, not for the violence though, lol. I own two katanas (samurai swords) right now. I'd like to get more soon, maybe some medieval swords with either celtic or dragon designs on the hilt.

I do have this ceremonial dagger my mom got when she was in Morocco, but that's it... I would like to get a battle-ready sword if I can... I mean, for self-defense mind you.

The only sword I have is a reproduction of a private-contract style U.S. infantry officer's sword, Civil War-era. And I have used it for living history. I don't collect fantasy swords, or historical knock-offs to hang on my wall or play with. Nor do I have the kind of income which would allow me to purchase and display original antiques...sadly.

Yes, I like swords and I own some. I have one katana, one dagger, seven halberds and three spears. Now I'm looking for a "one hand and a half" medieval sword.

Wow. O_o I have no idea what any of those are, but they sound dangerous. XD

I don't have much of an interest in swords and I don't own any either. My cousin does have replica of a medieval sword though. I can't even lift it up. XD
