ahh well done Gene I fear, from the repleys, I was more of less correct then.. In the western world most edged weapon collectors are a little older than us, & a very few are younger.. {Im just on 49..}
ive noticed most collecters, collect what they either saw,heard about or wanted when they were children to a degree...{With notable exceptions of course.}
In England many people wont even let there children play with toy swords or guns anymore.... I understand why, but fear this will have a greater & greater effect in how weapons collectors are seen in years to come.
These thoughts comes about because Ive noticed at arms auctions there loads of men in there mid late 50s & especialy 60s & early 70s and not many younger than me.
mmmm much to ponder....
