A new toy for harnischfechten!

[Sir Brian]

Here is a new dagger I plan on purchasing in the very near future to use in harnischfechten.

I purchased the fencing mask punch tester today and will put my perforated steel I had welded over my helm's oculars to the test.

We should test it also on James' nose just to be sure

That's the standard test for any new kit I believe, so this should be no exception.

Right!
Hey Sir James come over here after you finish that other huge Reese's cup!

As soon as I get my sides stitched, I will... they split from laughing so hard

It would be good to damage it a little more before its fully healed. As to be respectful.

[Sir Edward]

Cool, I look forward to seeing it... and taking it, and stabbing you with it. And I mean that in the nicest way possible.

Ahh, he beat me to it- at least with me, you know it was meant to be funny.

aka the Sir Nathan maneuver!

[Lord Dane]

Non-sense. James: Bring the Reeses with you so Brian's new toy can slice it up for the rest of us to have. Then we will test the durability of the nose.

[Sir James A]

Sir Brian, did I mention that my nickname at HEMA class is harnishfechten?

Therefore, going by the title of this thread, you bought me a new toy........

[Mike W.]

Much better than my nickname. In Civil War reenacting I earned the appellation of "Pickles" at my first event. I'll meet people I've never met before who'll say "Oh you're Pickles. I've heard about you." Very few people in that hobby actually know my name.

Should I be so lucky as to get a nickname. Well my airsoft team calls me skippy

[Sir Rodney]

“Rodney” was a nickname I picked up in junior high and carried through college.  There was more than one classmate our senior year who pointed out that the yearbook staff inserted the wrong name under my photo.  Of course, they hadn’t!   

Naturally I chose it as my SCA name.  Other than the SCA locals, everyone in the upper Midwest simply knows me as Rodney (as well as a few other names that are less than appropriate for this forum).   

Nice dagger BTW.  We need some video of stabby stab!

[Lord Dane]

Brian, I saw that very same Rondel dagger blunted on ebay for a decent price. How much was yours??
