Do absurdly wealthy people find it weird or ironic that they're dressing like they're actually the weirdos from that Hunger Games movie capital population?   How retarded is that.   They're emulating young adult fiction from a decade ago.

"Cast" and they had the audacity to call it a "perfect replica"?    

A perfect replica would be forged out of steel and constructed as the originals were.    

Resting the sword blade edge down on your shoulder is a nice touch too...

By 1400 or so, there'd been so many wars all over Europe, you could buy serviceable military surplus swords for pretty cheap, and many freemen carried them when traveling. Whether they could competently wield them was another matter.

So, how do they get all that aluminum, steel and chrome plating to mix together?

Or, how many barrels and small parts does it take to make one sword?

And, SHTF, they won't live too long with a sword compared to an AR15.

No.  And that's why some peasants, simple fishermen, wound up figuring out all sorts of new and innovative ways of killing the guy with the sword.  Turned into a huge shit show until the firearm finally was adopted and settled things right down.  

My point is that you cannot just legislate a tool's use because the world is full of guys who just sit around all day thinking of ways to kill someone else.  It's what people like that do.  You know, "Better to be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a war."?

Of course walking around with an fancy dress sword at some high dollar social event has shit to do with what's happening to poor folks in Chicago or Afghanistan.  Nobody gives a fuck about the people whose lives are cheap.  It's just fashionable posturing by a trophy wife.  Especially when they're dressing up like some cosplay warrior princess.

Reminds me of a verse from a Don Henley song…

“…O' beautiful, for spacious skies
But now those skies are threatening
They're beating plowshares into swords
For this tired old man that we elected king
Armchair warriors often fail
And they've been poisoned by these fairy tales
The lawyers clean up all details
Since daddy had to lie…”
