I'm in my 30s and have about 20 swords left from when I was young
Most are in a closet but the "best" (the one over $30) is on a stand on my mantle...

The only ones I actually care to keep are a full tang wood handled katana and a Cold Steel Grosse Messer the wife bought me after she saw me watch the video on the Cold Steel page. I would like to pick up a decent quality practical katana one of these days. The cheesy display pieces I picked up when I was younger are pretty much embarrassing now. |

I thought I was better than having a fantasy sword but remembered I bought a small katana and some throwing stars when I visited Japan as a kid. I threw away the sword when it snapped in half trying to chop a 2" popple tree. I still have the throwing stars for when my kids get older

Quoted:
Ok, several years ago a friend and I were getting drunk and watching Highlander. We decided that we needed some badass Highlander swords. We jumped on the information superhighway (aka the internet) and bought some Highlander swords. Now, several years later, I have decided that I don't need a Highlander sword. I don't stab a lot of people. And, truth be known, I haven't chopped off a single head. I know, I'm such a fag for having a Highlander sword and not chopping people' s heads off. But at this point it's just taking up space in my closet. I've thought about just putting it in the trash but it won't fit in a trash bag. I'd basically have to stick it in the trashcan. I'm weary about that because any trash person could grab it and use it in a crime. I could sell it on Ebay but I think it would cost more to ship it than what I could sell it for. I've thought about just stabbing it in the grass in my front yard and hanging a "Free" sign on it. There's a grade school down the street and I'm sure that there are a ton of grade schoolers that would love to have it. That would be nice and it would ingratiate some younger people into the martial arts. But I'm undecided. What should I do with it? http://i.imgur.com/bbJAlMA.jpg save it for the zombie apocalypse ! it is sharp, right? |

What you have there, is the greatest babe-magnet known to man besides possibly a Ferrari. Sure, there's a lot of decapitation in those films and that may be some sort of castration symbology going on, but that's not the main power of the sword. Seeing as how you've seen the film (or all of them -- the same thing happens), you know how this works. You say, "I'm Connor McLeod of the Clan McLeod and I cannot die." and whatever hot chick happens to be nearby will mount you pretty much on the spot. I've performed the experiment, you can even be members of the Clan McLeod with dorkier names like "Dougas" (that's the one I used). Works like a charm.

My wife has that one, and one other (not sure who's sword it is, I'd have to ask her) - she's a big Highlander fan, has the whole series. I think her Mom bought the swords for her when she was younger.
We both have a couple of swords, though mine are functional carbon steel. She does have a functional dagger made for her by a blacksmith friend, it's fairly nice.
