oh I am really sorry about your knifes But lets say, before they invent the chainmail, they used sharp knives, after lots of knight used chainmail, they changed the blades. So we both win
Wow, this Ibelin knight is great! I love him, fantastic work my friend.
Btw did you know that the Ibelins aren't fiction? There was evan an Balian of Ibelin there. This is true but not the story of Kingdome of heaven. But if you want to sell a movie you need a story and the truth is often boring *g*
You know what I am looking for since ages? A goodlooking SALADIN, standing or on horse, noncombat scene. But I can find him. And those I found were ugly...
but imagine a swordfight. Sword against sword. The blades would be destroyed within minutes if they were sharpened. Try to hit your kitschenknife with something made of steel and see what happens
I have all my wealons bought at Carell, one of his blacksmiths travelling around germany. I have an Ckub (morningstar), a saracenesword and a 1 1/2 handed sword. Great weapons. Btw. did you know that there wasn't any sharp swords during the crusades? They were only ahrp at the end, the top, to try to open the chainmail. Otherwise they only broke bones and destroy muscles because of the chainmail. Like to today the butchers wear chainmail so they doesn't hurt themselves wit their sharp knives.
