Silvanus:
It will be fun to trudge about in the rain  ;D

Silvanus:
Sorry I missed you guys today. I arrived late. I have the new sword belt and surcoat  ;D

There was one problem.... One of the security gentlemen at the outer gate gave me some grief for my sword hilt and scabbard.

I showed him that the blade was cut 1.5 inches from the hilt.

He told me that "they prefer" no hilt at all, just the scabbard. I mentioned that I (and others) had been doing so for weeks, even during last year's Faire. Still he said they "prefer" no hilt....

He still let me in.

I am beginning to dislike the security people.

Hope to see you all before the Faire ends.

Silvan

Sir Wolf:
its not their fault. the faire is owned by lawyers that have a strict no weapons policy thanks to many years of stupid people.

how is your sword hilt attached to your scabbard?

Sir Brian:
Silvanus! We missed you, Sir Ed and I tried to find you but our progress was greatly hampered with
numerous photo ops.

Yes they inquired about my sword as well and the real irony was we met an older guy dressed as a
Scotsman who had THREE weapons! He had an axe, a claymore and a dirk all without even being peace tied!  :o

He was even bragging about not even being checked at the gate!  >:(

So I don't know how much longer they'll let those of us in with the scabbards and sword hilts.  :-\

Silvanus:
Hi Sir Wolf,

I have the hilt tied to the scabbard with leather lacing. I took it out and showed him the one inch of blade....
