Save Scumming has hit 5000 Followers! SWORD TIME!
Added 2025-09-03 01:19:28 +0000 UTCYeah! Okay, so... as promised previously, when Save Scumming is to hit 5,000 followers I'mma buy a sword.
Why a sword, you ask?
Because... it's cool?
Anyway! Let's make this more fun! Below are some swords I thought were cool, with a decent range of types and sorts, and I figured it'd be cool to put it to a poll! So, here are a few options, all within a... somewhat reasonable-ish price range (one day, I'll get an Albion)!
Del Tin Italian Infantry Sword
Pros: One of the best sword makers around, relatively affordable, probably on the upper end of quality. Simple but pretty.
Cons: No sheath.
Atrim Cutlass
Pros: Usable at home for chopping branches and such. Sheath!
Cons: Not the prettiest. Interesting, but not historical design.
LK Chen Town Guard Sword
Pros: Small swords are the best. Very pretty. Plain but usable sheath.
Cons: Ugly finish on the hilt furnishings, but that can be sanded off. Need to buy from the manufacturer directly, which is a very minor con
LK Chen Disc Guard Cutting Jian
Pros: A non-European option. Blue! Cool talking piece.
Cons: Need to buy from the manufacturer directly, which is a very minor con
Comments
The Jian is the only one with an aesthetically attractive sheath to go with an aesthetically attractive sword.

2025-09-03 14:01:18 +0000 UTCI’m inclined to the cutlass myself, because while all of these look cool, having one that you can actually use means you get to interact with it. I have a sword somewhere in my closet, and it only comes out for certain costumes, which has made it less fun to own.
