Welcome to "Battle Blades".
I'd like to thank Andy and Sparks for offering me this wonderful opportunity. It's great to be back!
As noted, consider this our cyber dojo. Enter and leave with respect for yourselves and each other. Good debate is encouraged, but name calling - or "flaming" - is not. Ask good questions, seek good answers, listen to other viewpoints, glean solid recommendations and suggestions, learn from others and in return seek to teach others through your own experiences, knowledge, and hard work.
Every so often I'll post a thread on this or that to encourage the "flow". If you ask a question I'll seek to answer it swiftly, fairly, and with supporting information or resources, if possible. If it's just my opinion, I'll state such and you recieve the information as just that.
I encourage not only students of the arts or knife / edged weapons world to participate, but teachers / instructors, as well. Feel free to identify yourselves, your style or styles of defensive / offensive fighting, your schools, and so on. This is an exchange of information and ideas. Credential your observations, opinions, or thoughts to better support what you have to offer the rest of us. If you're a solo player, very cool. Often it's the lone wolves who have the best stuff to offer us.
Again, my thanks and welcome to all.
