And have you seen the price tag?    888.00 for sword and over 1k for the scabbard!

Plus they have a special combo deal for scabbard and dagger setup.....

[Sir William Marcus]

Wonder if they finance?  I was thinking about trading them my truck or maybe taking out a second mortgage.

You know, it would be nice if they manufactured a more consumer friendly set kinda like in the price range of the KoH collection especially for all the poor knights of the temple out there amongst


Well you gotta excuse me... I' m going to head down to the local convenient mart and get some scratch offs!

Wish me luck!

[Holding the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch]

Warrior Monk: How does it... um... how does it work?

Frere Brother of the thread: I know not, my liege.

Warrior Monk: Consult the Book of Armaments.

Frere William: Armaments, chapter two, verses nine through twenty-one.

Femme Falchion: [reading] And Saint Attila raised the hand grenade up on high, saying, "O Lord (used in a functional title capacity for any religous belief descibing an entity of authority and with the power to exercise a "make it happen ability", and strictly non gender specific), bless this thy hand grenade, that with it thou mayst blow thine enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy." And the Lord did grin. And the people did feast upon the lambs and sloths, and carp and anchovies, and orangutans and breakfast cereals, and fruit-bats and large chu...

Frere William: Skip a bit, Sister...

Femme Falchion: And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it.

Frere William: Amen.

All: Amen.

Warrior Monk: Right. One... two... five.

Frere Mikael: Three, sir.

Warrior Monk: Three.

[Monsignor de Beaumanoir]

Received another book in the mail yesterday: Templar Knights and the Crusades; Charles R. Dillon. It's like a smaller version of Mr Napier's A to Z of the Knights Templar, and Mrs Rall's Templar encyclopedia. It has no illustrations in it at all, but I did love the introduction he put in it. Definitely rings of a prior service military guy to me.

[Sir William Marcus]

Speaking of Napier's book, do you know if its on the shelves here in the U.S yet?

Note: For our lurkers of the thread, Gordon Napier's publication "A to Z of the Knights Templar" features our very own warrior monk "Frere Cliff de Beaumanoir's"  intimidating image on on the cover.

Frere Brother of the thread 1: But she has got a tatoo!

[Monsignor de Beaumanoir]

I know folks who've ordered it through Amazon U.K., but I think it's due out now in September of this year...

[Lady Christina de Pond]

i said almost. i didn't say i got it. I couldn't make up my mind on what to get because apparently acording to my friends  I'm the not the rose and lace type. I'm the sword and sheild type but i never did get one God stopped me. So i probley won't ever get one.
