"It wasn't the reward that mattered or the recognition you might harvest. It was your depth of commitment, your quality of service, the product of your devotion -- these were the things that counted in a life. When you gave purely, the honor came in the giving, and that was honor enough."

That is one ugly weapon...and the damage it would do, also very ugly, I can see that.

I just wanna know where I could get the mace thats marked with the number 14 in that pic. Been looking everywhere but cant find one.

It looks a lot like the MRL "River Thames" mace:

Well I discovered on my debut outing of the new armor that my current method of securing the sabatons to the toes of my boots was insufficient. I think I'll have to actually stitch a couple of rings onto the sole of my boots and interlace the sabatons to them.  :-\
