What my wife wants for Christmas
« on: November 23, 2008, 12:45:22 AM »
My wife has been interested in owning a sword for years.  She does not yet have one.

This is what she will be getting this year.

Pretty cool mate  :cheersmate:

I hope she likes it.  I am having it sent to my parents house, so she won't see this one coming.

Tres cool!  Just be cautious, she hasn't been subtly mentioning the importance of your life insurance policy lately, right?   :uhsure:

Seriously, if that's her passion n' dream, phenomenal present to spoil her with  :cheersmate:

Hell, she already owns a .357 magnum.  She ain't killed me yet.

LOL

So she's armed with a .357 in one hand, a bastard sword in the other, you're obligated to buy her 'hot' leather pants now man!  That's one bodacious bella!  :bow:

I'll put that on the list for next year.  LOL

I almost won a full scale steel (real, not stainless) claymore last month.  It was pretty nice.  A little rusted, and needed a little bit of work, but given that it could actually be sharpened back to a rather deadly instrument it woulda been nifty.  I got a $500 shopping spree instead, so I wasn't to dissapointed.   :-)

If you want a Desert Eagle you might as well go all out.

Speaking of swords, one of my sons returned from Spain last night.  He went to Toledo and picked up a couple of cool swords.  He also got me one for Christmas.

Yeah but variety is the spice of life. You have .357 Mag,.44 Mag and .50 AE in that case to choose from.
