Five kampilans: which two to buy?

FIRST OF ALL I WILL SAY I PERSONALLY SEE NOTHING WRONG WITH THE QUESTIONS POSTED AND THE INTENT WAS HONEST AND OPEN.
SO BEFORE WE MAKE A MOUNTAIN OUT OF A MOLE HILL AND MAKE SO MANY RULES AND REGULATIONS THAT IT EITHER BECOMES TOO DIFFICULT TO REMEMBER THEM ALL SO POSTING BECOMES A JOB INSTEAD OF FUN.
NOT BEING A MODERATOR I CAN ONLY STATE MY OPINION AND SUGGESTIONS, WEATHER YOU LIKE THEM OR NOT IS UP TO YOU

I THINK PERHAPS SOME OF US LEARNED SOMETHING FROM BILLS POST AS WELL AS MIGUELS POSTS. PERHAPS THEY COULD HAVE ALL BEEN IMPROVED.
BUT OFTEN I JUMP ON AND OFF THE COMPUTER AND THINK OF SOMETHING (AS I AM DOING NOW)

AND JUST TYPE IT OUT. I DO TRY TO GO OVER IT AND MAKE SURE IT DOSEN'T CONTAIN UNECESSARY STUFF THAT IS NOT FOR FUN OR INFORMATIVE UNLESSSS I GO TOO SLEEEP FIIRRSST.

SO WE ALL DO NEED TO MAKE OUR POSTS FAIRLY CONCISE AND EASILY UNDERSTANDABLE AND TRY NOT TO CLUTTER THEM UP TO MUCH. BUT WE ALSO NEED TO ALLOW QUITE A BIT OF LATITUDE FOR POSTS AND KEEP THE RULES AS EASY AND SIMPLE AS POSSIBLE TO ENCOURAGE NEW POSTERS TO GET THEIR FEET WET AND TO KEEP IT EASY AND UNCOMPLICATED FOR US OLD CODGERS.
WE WILL LEARN MORE FROM ONE BEGINNING COLLECTORS POST THAN FROM A THOUSAND LURKERS AND IT SEEMS THATS JUST ABOUT THE PERCENTAGES BETWEEN THE TWO. "TIME FOR BED" "HEY THATS JUST CLUTTER"

This type of thread is fine, as it doesn't appear these items are the subject of an active auction. The rationale behind the prohibition against discussing active auctions has been set forth in detail previously, so I won't bother to go into it again here.

Discussion of ivory items here is absolutely okay. We're not eBay.

Thank you so much Moderators for your unbiased answer towards my post.

Bill Marsh, I am not trying to engage you argumentatively, it's just very anoying sometimes seeing someone taking advantage of this forum for he's own benifits, and then, when he sees someone doing his own doing, he dis's them, it doesn't seem's fair. Either your stacking an all ivory swords in your vault or collecting a piece of rusty junk swords, as a collector, each should be treated fairly.
