Jonathan Silas 40 Posted January 3, 2018 Heron marked blades from "The Wheel of Time" Forged before the war of power with Aei Sedai weaving fire and destruction into their making. Hammers that could sunder the very gates of heaven, spears graven with ravens carried by a one eyed man with all the luck of battle at his fingertips.....

Had a huge impact on me as a teenager, reading about the Stoic warder who's advice to a lost young man was to face whatever came on his feet... 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Loved the first two books though. Felt 5 and 6 were losing steam fast 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Felt 5 and 6 were losing steam fast You hit what we in randland call "The Slog" there's so much information that has to be set up for the following books that the pace slows to a crawl. If you can muscle through it picks back up and is amazing once again. By the by, were sorta neighbors, Elizabethtown here. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris C-S 98 Posted January 6, 2018 KITH question: Must the magical edged item / blade be practical or can it be a legitimate edged blade (HT and all) but be more decorative / artsy? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would say make it as artsy as you want, as long as it is pointy/sharp and heat treated, and sturdy enough to use. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JJ Simon 123 Posted January 7, 2018 Not to be persnickety a knife is not a knife without a proper heat treat. It is a knife shaped object. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's a given I would have assumed, if that was directed towards me. I plan on it be perfectly usable and not just a BSO. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
