WHAT DO YA THINK?

In this period i can't display all my "gadgets" so i have them in some boxes, but the fear to damaged them in some way is HUGE!!!!

So i ask my MAMMA (mother), that when she was young was a taylor, to do somethings for me and so she has sewn some guards for the swords. Outside there is a heavy cotton, then there is a layer of soft padding and to the inside a kind of silk. What do you think?

Great Flavio !
There is also available here in (the US at least) a type of foam padding bonded with cloth which might offer even more protection .
Every little bit helps !

Flavio,
Your Mom is an angel!
Now, to make you feel guilty: and what have you done for her lately?
