Who here has real swords?

I have five swords.
#1 scotish short sword
#2 scotish broad sword
#3 long sword/homade sword (they are both the same thing only the hilt broke off and so I got my dads expensive tape and made a great hilt)
#4 lotr sting
#5 curved dress sword
What kind of swords do you have?

I have plastic swords and a 2 wooden swords (working on two wodden sheilds)

I don't collect swords, but...

I have...or will have very soon, actually... A naval officer's sword. Sometimes, it's fun to be in NJROTC.

I have three, though I only have pics of two.

Not a chance... my parents would never let me get a real sword. And even if they did, I probably do not have enough money for one anyways, and what would I need a sword for? It is not like I would have a use for it. I have no where to put it, so it is useless even as a decoration. I probably will not be getting a sword, a real sword, anytime soon.

I have one sword, but I made it in my backyard >_> http://a.1asphost.com/Correk/sword%20001.jpg

I don't have any swords, but I do know alot about how swords are made and all that sort of thing. The only sword mentioned here that is a real sword is the 400 year old Katana that Kedisar mentioned. All the others I assume are stainless steel display swords that aren't really actual swords and are pieces of steel that just look like real swords, but are not.

I don't, though I wish I did. My friend has like three though. He has two kantanas, and an old styled Chinese sword. They are so awesome. I like to unsheath them, and do some different strokes with them. It is very fun.

Uh..My Friend has two Samuari swords. Real authentic and very sharp. Could decapitate a man in meer moments. Heh.
I dont have any Swords though..Oh well..

Awesome I tell you..

Well my friend and i actually are starting to collect swords. He is into the japanese swords so he has a couple of katanas and one long, samarai sword. Im into the english, medieval swords so i got an english broad sword, an english one handed sword and a two handed, long bladed sword. They are not sharp though because such things are not permitted sharp in Australia unless you have a good reason why.

I recently bought a "crappy display" sword. Actually, it's almost a dagger, but it's too long to be a dagger, so a short sword I guess? I almost bought some actual sowrds, but a few factors stopped that.
1. I had to be at least 18 to get some
2. I have a younger brother who I know would cut himself with it.
3. Even if 1&2 didn't apply, I didn't have enough money.
But my sword that I bought is actually sharp, but only at the tips. My friend accidentally got a cut on the palm of him hand when it was still in the box.

I wish I had a sword! It would have to be a ninja sword or a big medievil sword. Too bad I don't have enough money for them. But maybe YOU could give me a sword. I do have staffs though.(if you call a metal broomstick, a wooden broomstick with black tape covering it, and some sort of meatl tube that can split into 2 {my double staff as I call it.}staffs)

I have a wooden sword from bali....its quite small lol, my friend has a metal sword and its so cool it comes in a little case thingy. I do though have a fully working bow and arrow which sometimes i use to hurt boxes :p

I love swords. I love collecting them. My favorite would have to be the LOTR replica of the sword used in the third movie. I want to know if you can buy a Master Sword. If anyone can show me where to buy one i'd like that alot. I've seen the site with the replica, but was it for sell?

WOW! (this is better then enything I get on bzpower)
Lots of people here are into swords, here is a great sword site.http://www.armsofvalour.com/miva/merchant.mv
My dad said he would get me a full tang katana soon. (those are so sweet)

I'm with a friend of mine now and he has a couple of real swords, a dagger, a mace, crossbow and other one I don't know the name of

But they're really awesome
