Hi,

My wife got the fencing blade and stuff today in trade for her backup Samurai helm (the one without the shell) because she got out of SCA heavy fighting…and while I haven’t seen the blade yet, I can submit the transcript that follows (helps to type 80 wpm):

Ohhhhhh! This end will be hard (she's opening the box)....

Sweet!

Aw man!

Sweet!

This is NICE!

Oh!

All I see is the foil. You'll like this foil. From floor to chest ...it's got a big bell on it decorated with leaves and whatnot, crossbar with a half moon curve and the handle is just big enough for my hands.

May be a bit heavy for me, but I'll adjust. Oh yes, I'll adjust.

You'll like this, this is nice.

Oh...shiny too! Oh yes!

MINE! It's mine!

I'm happy!


Yes, she laughed when I read it back to her and said, "That sounds a bit erotic..."

But she is very, very happy, and looking forward to fencing now!

Thank you!

Oh, and he sent fencing gear (facemask and fencing shirt) a couple of weeks ago. Here they are on my better half.

And...we got all this fencing gear (blade, facemask & fencing shirt) for ONE sock, plus some other stuff that ended up in the box! :oops:

Maureen happy is the gold standard as far as all purchases, IMO. She's very happy now, and I think the foil will hang in the bedroom, on her side.
