Also. Can anyone recommend an accurate and functional Greatsword ? Anything that is good and historically accurate in handling? If it's affordable all the better. I would love to see one from the battlecry line. I will be purchasing the entire line very soon. Any response is appreciated and thank ...

Does anyone have any info on storing weapons safely in a temperate zone? The Bosworth Longsword I have had the Guard come lose without having encountered a single target.

Also, if Mr. Clements reads this, I love the battlecry line. Some of the best weapons I have owned. I hope you continue the line and was wondering if there are any plans to come out with a decent greatsword? I do hope so. I think one made for the battlecry line would be the crown jewel. Thank you ...
