A MERRY CHRISTMAS (HAPPY HOLIDAYS) AND A PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR.

[katana]

I want to wish everyone on this forum Seasonal Greetings, peace and goodwill.. :) May the up and coming year provide us with new challenges, new hope and ..of course ...new additions to our collections :)
At a time of 'giving', I would like to give my appreciation to the Moderators (whom do a fantastic job) and all those that have taken the time to enlighten me, when I needed answers to questions. This is a great 'community' ..long may it continue...

Regards David

[Robert]

That goes for me too!! Many thanks to our host and moderators for making this great forum possible, and also many thanks to the forum members for invaluable information and wonderful discussions.
Merry Christmas and happy New Year...or as one member put it last year "good grog and a good wench to all..." or something like that :D

Happy Holidays!
In the New Year may we all find a lot of sharp and pointy things at bargain prices and be healthy and happy enough to enjoy them!

[Bill M]

Merry Kris-mass!

[Rick]

My wish for the Holidays is for more understanding, coexistence and harmony for us all everywhere, in both the online and the real World.

We; each one of us, have so little time here as it is.

Hi Folks,

My very best wishes and compliments to you all for the festive season and the coming new year. May we grow wiser and ever more knowledgeable in our studies of hoplology and the collection of related weaponry (Boy's Toys :D ).

Cheers to all

Happy Holidays to everyone, and may we all stay healthy throughout the New Year and enjoy our common hobby.

[fernando]

A lot of us here was born within or has choosen different religious options, which makes it that Christmas rituals, in one account, may be "off topic" for them.
But still there is a great deal envolved in these moments, apart from religion, like wishing good health and all the best for actually everyone.

Have you all nailed a pair of pantyhose to the mantelpiece? It is better than a stocking, as there will be room for two swords :p.

Bill you forgot the Danish version. God jul og godt nytår.

With so many members of differing nationalities,cultures, religions and beliefs, it is fantastic to see the friendship shown.

Ironic that our interest in weapons, used to kill and maim, unites us. Why? I feel in studying ethnographic weapons we develop understanding and respect for other cultures. So rather than wish everyone a 'Merry Christmas' ......I wish everyone.....in the true 'essence' of the celebration...

Peace and Goodwill to you and your family

Sincerely David

[Bill M]

Very well put David! As usual. :D
