Where do you usually post militaria and reproductions?

Our lead moderator Fernando passed away a year ago, and was adamant about keeping these topics out of these pages, where we discuss arms from all periods and places up to 1900, with certain exceptions with items from those earlier periods transcending into later use.

I guess now that he's gone, the guidelines we set in 2008 are as well?

I would defer to Lee on this. The Waterman knives are some of my newest military blades. Maybe the curb might be military knives and swords (generally) but there are all the Wiemar period commercial hunting swords and knives.

It might be inferred that pre 1900 items are somehow more noble.

That said, the link to that forum is where I would point to for US military and Blade Forums for everything else. These forums are a dying breed.

The Facebook groups can be very twitchy in posting and can be difficult to navigate. I kinda hate them at times.
