- Paul Chen Swords
-
For the experience sword collector, Paul Chen is known as one of the best maker of affordable samurai sword. For those who have never heard of him here is a simple resume of who he is.
Paul Chen is in reality a pseudonym, his real name is Chen Chao-Po. He’s the founder of Hanwei a company whose goal is to create high quality swords at an affordable price. Most of the swords created by Hanwei are forged using the traditional methods used by ancient Japanese sword smiths.
Paul Chen Swords are amongst the most popular swords for collectors.
Hanwei specialise in the creation of Japanese swords of the Edo Period ad has recently moved on to the creation of Iaito sword (practitioners of Iaido), Chinese and European swords like:
- Viking swords
- Medieval swords
- Re-enactors swords
- Rapiers
- and more….
If you are looking for quality swords to add to your collection i would highly recommend taking a look at some of Paul Chen Creations, the quality of these swords is by far superior to most that can be found on the market. Most swords manufactured by Hanwei are battle-ready swords, which mean they are in most cases, the real deal.

- Movie Swords - a New Possibility
-
A couple of years ago it was very difficult to even consider collecting movie swords. People like me were usually collecting army swords, medieval swords or Japanese weapons… But now with the power of the internet and with the initiative of multiple companies it is now possible to collect the props used in various movies.
Often these props are manufactured by the same company the designed them for the movies…Movie swords collecting is not as valuable as collecting ancient & antique swords, but it can still be very satisfying…
You see some collectors only collect items that have a high financial value, but not me, my samurai swords are of amazing quality and they are worth a lot of money, but I chose them mostly because I like them, I have no intention to ever sell these…it is the same with my movie swords, they are just for me…
I have written a complete article concerning
movie swords, please feel free to read it and learn a little bit more about this new possibility for sword collectors like you and i…

- Pocket Knives - 13 Function Rubber Grip Army Knife
-
I prefer to collect fantasy swords and weapons to actual ones. But recently I stumbled upon a really cool pocket knife. In fact this rubber grip army knife is so cool you’ll be better prepared for any disaster than Macgyver. Yup, it’s that cool.
OK 13 functions and one knife but contrary to what you might think it’s not bulky. Rather than list all of the components I leave it at the following: scissors, a nail file, a bottle opener, a knife, two serrated blades, a corkscrew and a peeler.
Now what I like best is you can get this one engraved with a name. So none of your friends can mistakenly pick this up. It makes a great gift but I just bought it for myself.

- Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King (Wii)
-
This game for Wii isn’t a role playing game and oddly enough it’s not multi-player. So you might ask why did it receive decent reviews?
It’s a city building game that has outstanding graphics. If you like that sort of thing, this game will appeal to you. It gets down right addicting if you are the sort of individual that likes to find things especially if you like collecting weapons and crawling dungeons. It’s the weapons that intrigued me personally.
