Hi Jim,

Once more your praise made me blush, Sir!

I have to admit though to have shared all my knowledge on early Landsknecht swords in this thread, and I will continue updating it the best I can.

A whole lot more than I could ever tell about 16th c. edged weapons I have often tried to share on 14th-17th c. firearms and accouterments though - sadly enough that topic didn't seem to be of similar interest among the community ...

Actually, only my brilliant friends Alexander (Spiridonov), 'Nando, Richard and Rick (and of course YOU, give or take one or two) seem to have cared much so far.

Best from a carryin'-on
Michael

Actually, I think quite a few follow the topics, but might not have more to add than the experts-

I'm enjoying the enlightenment, I assure you.

I definitely agree with Mark, always informative and interesting reading but I just don't have the knowledge to add to most of the discussions. Don't stop!!!!

My Regards,
Norman.

Hi Norman,

Your kind attention is feedback enough and makes my work worth while!

I cannot expect others to have that extremely specialized knowledge. I'm sure most of our members know a whole lot on topics I've never heard about ..

Best,
Michael
