stratasfan Posted January 2, 2021 Share #27 Posted January 2, 2021 I second the pinning. This fits right in with some of the very informative topical posts in the Edged Weapons. So interesting to be able to find information about the makers and craftsmen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
