Some recommendations for functional swords under $150

For a general introduction to sword collecting, with basic information and tips for beginners: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zDaMR8ifEnU Although I generally suggest saving up for higher value reproductions of historical weapons, I of course understand that many people have a rather limited budget to spend on their collection. I plan to make further videos with recommendations of affordable swords, spears, axes, maces, etc. Here is the first one, swords for $150 or less that offer high value for the price, or would at least be worth giving a try. *** My suggestions in this video *** - Qama by Windlass http://ww4.aitsafe.com/go.htm?go=kultofathena.com/product.asp?item=400164&afid=28632&tm=14&im=1 - Spartan Lakonia by Windlass http://ww4.aitsafe.com/go.htm?go=kultofathena.com/product.asp?item=401178&afid=28632&tm=14&im=1 - Roman Pompeii gladius by Windlass http://ww4.aitsafe.com/go.htm?go=kultofathena.com/product.asp?item=500598&afid=28632&tm=14&im=1 - Spanish falcata by Windlass http://ww4.aitsafe.com/go.htm?go=kultofathena.com/product.asp?item=500062&afid=28632&tm=14&im=1 - Hungarian saber by Windlass http://ww4.aitsafe.com/go.htm?go=kultofathena.com/product.asp?item=501084&afid=28632&tm=14&im=1 - Classic medieval sword by Windlass http://ww4.aitsafe.com/go.htm?go=kultofathena.com/product.asp?item=500020&afid=28632&tm=14&im=1 - Early 14th century cinquedea by Marshal Historical http://ww4.aitsafe.com/go.htm?go=kultofathena.com/product.asp?item=MHW1112&afid=28632&tm=14&im=1 - Russian kindjal by Windlass http://ww4.aitsafe.com/go.htm?go=kultofathena.com/product.asp?item=400318&afid=28632&tm=14&im=1 - Russian shasqua by Windlass http://ww4.aitsafe.com/go.htm?go=kultofathena.com/product.asp?item=501074&afid=28632&tm=14&im=1 - Cobra Steel kindjal by Windlass http://ww4.aitsafe.com/go.htm?go=kultofathena.com/product.asp?item=402578&afid=28632&tm=14&im=1 - Cobra Steel line by Windlass (e.g. kindjal, falcata, kopis) http://ww4.aitsafe.com/go.htm?go=kultofathena.com/s_results.asp?search=cobra+steel&submit=Search&afid=28632&tm=14&im=1 - Dynasty dadao sword by Condor http://ww4.aitsafe.com/go.htm?go=kultofathena.com/product.asp?item=CTK35819HC&afid=28632&tm=14&im=1 - 300 Spartan sword by Windlass http://ww4.aitsafe.com/go.htm?go=kultofathena.com/product.asp?item=881010&afid=28632&tm=14&im=1 - Moro balaisiong by Traditional Filipino Weapons http://ww4.aitsafe.com/go.htm?go=kultofathena.com/product.asp?item=TFW011xxx_01&afid=28632&tm=14&im=1 - Warlord dadao by Hanwei http://ww4.aitsafe.com/go.htm?go=kultofathena.com/product.asp?item=PC1012&afid=28632&tm=14&im=1 - Damascus Thunder God katana by Masahiro http://ww4.aitsafe.com/go.htm?go=kultofathena.com/product.asp?item=MC3056&afid=28632&tm=14&im=1 Want to help fund future videos? http://www.patreon.com/skallagrim My Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/SkallagrimYT
