Sword restoration: Boss Level.
x4 hours of deep cleaning and scrubbing to get this poor babe feeling good about life again!

I love being able to do this for people’s tools. It makes everyone happy, especially the sword. I don’t care how they got that way- just give them to me and I’ll make everything better.

okay new social experiment reblog and put in the tags what kind of weapon you were convinced you were meant to wield when you were younger and what it changed to later. for me it was a bow and arrow to metal gauntlets
went from bowstaff as a kid to spear or another polearm
i still like the shaft length for reach and double edged attack frequency but having a blade on one or both ends definitely helps
However if we’re talking weapons for self defense instead of for open battle, then my answer changed from a sword to a reinforced kyteshield made from modern materials.
Shoutouts to the YouTube channel Shadiversity for convincing me on how useful shields are, even in this day and age.
I mean just look at what riot gear looks like and now try to tell me shields and armor aren’t a thing anymore.
You can’t?
Thought so!
