What makes you think having swords is crazy? Meet part of my collection :-)

Owning a sword: 0% crazy.

Using a sword in public with a crazed look in your eyes: 98% crazy.

Mmm, nice blades. I bet it's interesting trying to carry *that* home in 
your shoppig bag, eh? ;-)

Ah yes, I tend not do that indeed :-)

Thanks !

Well 2 of the four were delivered at my home, and all were packed quite 
tightly, so most people wouldn't know you're carrying it :-)

On the other hand, the guard of one of these actually nearly destroyed 
the cardboard it was in, probably due to some fairly rough handling 
during transit. I imagine another package had to suffer some impact from 
5cm of blunt steel...

Ordering fairly tough stuff has some advantage after all :-)

    No kidding, I've actually seen that happen right next to me! O.O

     It was an Asian guy weilding what looked like Samurai sword chasing a 
bloke down the road. I guess the bloke didn't pay for his meal or 
something...

     It was funny though. :)

...! o_O

Not sure I'd say that was "funny"... more like terrifying! But hey, each 
to their own.

    It was funny because it was obvious the sword-wielder was never going to 
catch the guy. And anyway, I'd just come out of a club at nearly 2am, 
everything's funny then... ;)
