Collectible Knife and Sword The King Arthur CD Audio Collection The legend of King Arthur comes to life! Howard Pyle recounts the great moments of Arthur's life: the infant son of the dying king, hidden for his protection by the magician Merlin; the boy who reclaims his destiny by pulling the sword from the anvil; and the king who led his Knights of the Round Table to battle armed with the miraculous sword, Excalibur. The King Arthur Audio Collection also includes the story of Sir Lancelot, the valiant knight who fell in love with Queen Guinevere, and the story of Sir Galahad, whose purity and quest for the Holy Grail were ultimately Arthur's tragedy. Performed eloquently by Ian Richardson, this collection is a perfect retelling of the greatest story of kings and knights, wizards and duels, love, honor, and chivalry that has ever been told. This collection includes: The Sword in the Anvil, Excalibur, The Story of Sir Lancelot, and The Story of Sir Galahad.
The Connoisseur's Book of Japanese Swords by Kokan Nagayama, Sword appreciation can be deeply satisfying. Each school of sword craftsmanship has its own distinctive shape, characteristics, and overall aesthetic, and the trained eye can consistently and reliably make these distinctions. Here, collected in one volume, is all the crucial information readers need to become true connoisseurs. Nagayama first provides an in-depth consideration of the sword in Japan, from antiquity to the present. He then examines the five traditional schools of workmanship -- Yamashiro, Yamato, Bizen, Soshu, and Mino -- as well as a few outstanding specimens from the Edo period. The final section, a comprehensive guide to sword appreciation, includes guidance on how to measure a sword, judge its quality, make a correct attribution, and look for flaws. Throughout, the book is illustrated with the author's own clear, painstakingly detailed drawings, familiarizing readers with the telling differences in each of the most important features of a sword: its decorative carving, the tip of the blade, the cutting edge, and the hilt. Written by one of the great contemporary sword polishers, The Connoisseur's Book of Japanese Swords is the definitive guide (the original Japanese edition is already in its ninth printing). This important and lovingly produced work is one to treasure.
Butterfly sword - The butterfly sword or butterfly knife is a short dÄo, or single-edged blade, originally from the South of China, though it has seen use in the North. The blade length is approximately that of the forearm, for easy concealment within the sleeves or beside the shin, and for greater maneuverability to spin and rotate in close-quarters fighting. Wodao - The wodao (ćć, literally "sword/knife of the woć people") is a Chinese sword from the Qing Dynasty. Apparently influenced by Japanese sword design, it bears a strong resemblance to a Tachi or Odachi in form: extant examples show a handle approximately 25 cm long, with a gently curved blade 80 cm long Dirk - Dirk is a Scots word for a long dagger; sometimes a cut-down sword blade mounted on a dagger handle, rather than a knife blade. The word dirk could have possibly derived from the Gaelic word "sgian dearg"(red knife). Pantographic knife - A Pantographic knife, also known as a paratrooper knife, is a folding knife whose blade is fully enclosed by its handles when closed, in a manner similar to a balisong knife (commonly called a butterfly knife in western countries) - with which it is often confused. Unlike the balisong knife, the pantographic knife uses a pantograph linkage to keep the handles aligned during opening and closing (whereas balisong knife handles swing freely and independently). collectibleknifeandsword
