A nice display of your exquisite carpentry, Sir James. Make a nice holder for your newly acquired Albion that I got side swiped on. Next time!! Grrrrrrr!!!!
The Albion will go either on the wall in the bedroom, or in the swords case. This rack is just for european polearms. I'm mildly OCD with weapons grouping and displays.

I'm glad I sold some non-medieval stuff to cover a good portion of those purchases, though, or my next purchase might have been unplanned divorce.
I may need to just drop the "&" and starting checking in with "AA" - Armor Addictions anonymous. Or would that be AAA? "I'm not only the president, I'm also in armor right now."
