2010. When I played a scarface #Asian mafia boss lady on a horror film short production. Filmed at the old Hung Fat #kungfu club in Chinatown. Gentrification got their longtime, oldest kungfu association in BC, evicted a few years ago.

Gloria Tsoi, pictured with me, owns & runs the kung-fu club - passed down from ancestors. We've been friends since the 90s.

I commissioned this absolute beauty two and a half years ago.

Over the past month the conversation has gone from "should I abandon hope of ever getting anything for that down payment" to "what color do I want the leather handle wrapping" and I couldn't be happier.

Bit of a different question today. Does anyone have intel on possible connections between orange and Freemason lodge (specifically in New Zealand)?
We got given some of my partner’s grandfather’s things. Amongst them were three swords. We know he was a member of the orange lodge, but a picture search says they are more likely to be Freemason.

Arms & ArmorGustav Vasa Rapier Spotlight The Gustav Vasa Rapier from Arms & Armor is an exceptional replica of the sword of a King. Gustav Vasa was king of Sweden from 1523 to 1560. He was an great leader and military commander. An elegant example of the Norman Type 43 hilt done in steel with blackened and bright contrasting finish to mimic the black and gold finish of the original sword. The hilt with straight guard arms, an out turned main side ring, two forearms and a U-shaped fore ring is a simple and sturdy form of complex hilted sword. The back guard is a side ring supported by two back bars joined to the ring at the center and rooted at the end of the forearms.   Gustav Vasa Rapier by Arms & Armor   The arms of the guard and pommel are decorated with panels of foliage and geometric patterns. The ends of the arms terminate in lion heads and the outer center of the side rings are set with medusa heads. All of the decoration is very sculptural and bold. This replica has a twisted steel wire bound grip with a lexan core for years of sturdy and stable durability. The blade is 6150 steel, tempered to 50-51 RC hardness. This gives authentic and durable blade life with good edge holding ability for long and consistent use. Gustav Vasa Hilt   The blade of the original is probably of German manufacture, but the hilt may have been made in Sweden. Gustav Vasa invited German craftsmen to set up shop in 1551 to create an internal arms industry similar to Henry VIII of England’s creation of the Greenwich Armoury. We are lucky to have this sword today as it was nearly destroyed in a fire in the armouries and only saved when someone throw it out a window. It sustained some damage but has been restored and our replica gives you the chance to have a sword like this for your very own.   A video spotlight of our Gustav Vasa Rapier   Nathan Clough, Ph.D. is Vice President of Arms and Armor and a member of the governing board of The Oakeshott Institute.

Youngest brother has put his first 3d model online for sale via Printables.

He's created a rather nice basket hilt collapsible rapier. The tip is rounded, as a safety measure. It's a fun piece to play (carefully) with, or would make a great cosplay piece.

He requires five sales before he can upload more models to the store. I honestly think he's done a fantastic job with this.

Fits on a Prusa MK4S and other similar printers.

Today on Every Day Original is my Three of Swords for the upcoming 78 Tarot Medieval deck.

One of the fun things about working on multiple tarot decks is making each card unique even when based on the same thing. This is my 4th version of this card, and though they are all based on Rider-Waite Smith, they all tell a different story!
