I got into HEMA from playing RPGs and reading epic fantasy, but the hobby can get expensive. This is the first one I ever bought with the money I'd saved up. Medieval rondel thrusting dagger, 14th - 16th centuries, specialized in armor piercing.

Please remember to always always always drill, practice and spar with all of the appropriate safety gear on! And never use live steel for anything except solo thrusting drills.

MIDTERMS -- a poem and song by Bill Kochman 

#Poetry #Poem MIDTERMS by Bill Kochman 02-18-2022 We're coming down to the midterms, Politicians are playing for blood, Out come their knives and daggers, They'll drag you through the mud. To them facts aren't so important, They'll say whatever to win a poll, So happy to cast dirt on opponents, As their lies take a dreadful toll. It doesn't really matter the party, Those politicians are all the same, Convincing you they did not do it, It's the opposition that's to blame. Forget about the important issues, They distract you with red herrings, They will sow doubts and suspicion, So the opponent loses his bearings. A cruel political fight for survival, Only one party can take that crown, Thus they'll pull out all the stops, Just to take that other man down.
