Yeeks, it's pretty scary how many of you own deadly weapons!
Soon I should be ordering a foil (a type of sword used for fencing), along with some other gear, as I am a fencer.
It will probably be called "my foil".

meh i dont really like fencing, its the only form of swordsmanship im not fond of. Something about prancing around like youre a marionette and poking at each other doesnt tickle my fancy but then again its still way better than a gun and hell if youre good at it, then i still respect you.

Haha, fencing's great, you don't have to prance you know, you could fence in a way which is more aggressive, more thrusting, or go for a more defensive style (which I enjoy the most) where there's lots of parrying. Have to be quick and alert to do this well though!
Anyway, fencing is probably the most widespread sword sport over here (probably in the whole world), so the easiest to become part of.

no id say kendo is more widespread, but i didnt even mean a class you take. I specialize in Broadswords, i have those two swords i said earlier in the thread and i practice with them daily. My 54" claymore is my favorite, im grown quite good with it, i can wield it one handed now pretty well though i wouldnt in a fight lol.

now why would you go and use a Golden Sun summon on me? Guns are terrible, they require NO skill (unless youre a sharpshooter and then youre a coward because you can kill people WITHOUT THEM EVEN SEEING YOU!). Guns have no honor or class, any weakling can just pick up a gun and shoot someone, it takes skill and strength to wield a sword (and intelligence to cast magic but thats not in real life....) and honor too (not much you can do to kill a person with a sword with them knowing and if you do then youre still putting your life at risk by getting that close).

=\
Lion you seem very focused on your swords, i dont know whether to be impressed or scared :S
lol, your right about any idiot using a gun, but thats what everyone does. =\

no i do love my swords, but im not a psycho (the swords arent even sharp, but i could stab somebody with them...*strokes chin* lol jk).
