Hello everyone,
I'm new on this forum and thank you for welcome me, I write English with translation software. I know it is rare for a woman collects weapons, but I'm in love with African art in general, and particularly African weapons, which does not prevent me from collecting other weapons ethnological. The collection is an incurable disease, when you start, it never stops. Maria Filomena |

You hear that boys? So stop yer cussin' and behave yourselves! There is a lady in the house!
 Welcome to the forum Maria. While women do seem less likely to be drawn to weapons collection i have know a few who join you in their enthusiasm. African is not my thing in terms of collecting, but i have always appreciated it on form alone and look forward to seeing some of your collections.

Welcome
Hi Maria.
Welcome to the Forum and I hope it is as rewarding for you as it has been for me. Our collecting is varied, but it is interesting to see and learn about weapons other than our own. Regards Stuart |
