Glad I am not the only one.
My sister and I both collect "primitive" weapons, meaning any weapon that doesn't require an explosion to function. We usually get each other something along that line. Last year, she got me throwing stars and I got her a cheap full tang katana that she wanted to add to her hiking gear. She wanted a cheap one since it will get used and beat up.

My only problem is that I regard any katana cheaper than about $ 2500 as useless
Yes, I have some strange Shinto ideas about kami etc. Don´t ask
But maybe I should get a cheap training katana sometime. I´m getting tired of my bokken.
But I like all kinds of "real" weapons, and with real I mean weapons that don´t need exlposions to function as you said.
I think I´m straying dangerously off-topic here. Sorry
And I forgot to add the Chess Set to my wishlist. Phew, now I´m almost on-topic at least

The rest I'm using for cd's I've fallen in love with.
. I'm getting a Viking Longboat, 3 packs of 45 degree slopes, 1 pack of 2X2 flat black tiles and 3 packs of old grey plates. Oh the joys of Christmas
