[QUOTE="Templetroll, post: 333510, member: 2201"] Way back when, I was in the Navy and while in Spain I bought a rapier and sabre. I had a replica morningstar but the chain broke so all I have now is a metal ball with blunt points on it. At our wedding reception friends who owned a game store gave us a large window fan box. He said, "that's not what it is." We opened it up, I reached into the packing and pulled out a battleaxe! It was a nice replica, and there was a crossbow also. The crossbow had a thick rubber string so it didn't have a lot of power. Our gaming friends spent a while shooting the bolt at the box. Our relatives were surprised that the weapons got a better and louder reactions than the big microwave. :) Some of the folks from the reception next door crashed our reception since we were noisier and seemed to be having more fun. Later on, another friend who worked in a martial arts emporium brought us a chinese executioner's sword replica. He had a small cardboard box over the blade, which was about 3 feet long. He said he was almost hoping someone would try something. [/QUOTE]
