Is it just me or is there a hell of a lot of bend in the sword in the foreground (guy in red)?

WHOA! That bend is nasty. I'll look at my blade real close when I get home next week. I know I have two small curves in it, a ways apart, but they may have lengthened with a bend like that. It's probably time for a new one anyways.

The blade is the standard James the Just fare, and was purchased at least four years ago. Two years heavy use. Heavy as in this picture, watch that head shot Bobby: http://talentus.smugmug.com/gallery/5649787_kLYQd/1/347536948_iREJZ#347537504_FrjeD

I'm not sure how bad the bend is in Dante's blade, or what make it is. Usually the more dangerous large bends are closer to the tip.

Guillemin's blade is a 40" TCA T03 and is a little over 4 years old. It was my old one...

That's Dryfuss.  He's in Fez Brigade.  HRH Vik encouraged all the armoured fighters in his Barony of Borealis to gear up and get authorized in time for Winter War.  Some of them liked it so much that they have continued to fence - - -  AT War, Quad War etc etc.  It has been great for cross over, and the boys are having some LARGE amount of fun.

It was TERRIFYING to see them all at Winter War though...  they had us on numbers - people, RBGs, ammo!  Good thing we had them on strategy and wiliness : )
