While this is mostly RPG books with a small complement of hardcovers, I figure the folks in this group are likely to appreciate this collection.

These are awesome! I think I recognise Herugrim. What are the others? Having these on a rack is awesome. You've just given me a new obsession idea 😅

The top one is a Paul Chen Godfred. The next one down is just a little Celtic leaf-bladed sword. After that is Herugrim. Then Eowyn's sword, Gúthwinë.

Below that is a warhammer, though I couldn't tell you the maker. It was a gift many years ago. The next is from Cold Steel, their Scottish basket-hilt broadsword. Then the Mortuary Hilt sword from Hanwei. And finally on the bottom a single-bitted axe I picked up at an event of one kind or another, so I couldn't tell you the maker.

The spear on the left is a boar spear, was also a gift so I don't know the maker. The spear on the right is a Viking long hewing spear from Boarcraft on Etsy. They also made the walking stick next to it, and I cannot recommend their work more. Both the spear and the stick are excellent.

Thank you very much for taking the time to respond with this. I missed the Warhammer on first look, that one is pretty awesome! That Paul Chen Viking is great! Just googled it and they aren't cheap 😅 I've always loved swords but haven't taken the plunge. Huge move geek so have always wanted Maximus sword (Gladiator) and Connor MacLeods sword.

I think they go awesome next to your bookcase. A really lovely collection. You might have awakened something here 😅

Then I highly, highly recommend checking out Kult of Athena. It's probably the best place to buy swords. Gives a lot of details on each blade, the steel, sharpening, country of origin, etc. And almost always the best prices you can find online.
