They are equal,  gay guys are known to have issues with depth perception and judging things of equal size. Have you seen your optometrist lately?

Nice dagger, and remember it's not the size that counts but how deeply you can stab.

Knocked out a scabbard yesterday, while home with the kids from closed school. I'll try to get a pic and post it up.

I’ve seen a lot of medievalists do cool things with that inexpensive blade blank from AC.  Very cool!   8)
