Just got back from a weekend at the excellent Colorado renaissance faire in Larkspur, Colorado. Awesome stuff. They've got a great recreated little village, loads of awesome little store booths, jousting, entertainment, and loads of pointy steel objects. Stopped by one of my favorites - Badger Blades (www.badgerblades.com) and picked me up a really nice heavy throwing knife. This thing will pierce car doors. Those guys make some amazingly tough steel without making it brittle.

Also, I got myself a kilt with a nice green - black - red tartan on it. I'm wearing it as I type this. Heck yeah.

Sounds Fun!I've never been to a Renaissance Fair before, but I have gone to the Excalibur in Los Vegas before.

I love Ren Faires! I went to one a couple weeks ago, got myself a rather chinsy Roman batte Axe (looks cool anyways :P ) and I got myself a black fox tail.

Damn, you got a kilt. I'm jealous. :P

Is it a traditional kilt or a French style though?

And SS was very annoyed at that fact, plus how X keeps asking for it to be 'petted' over MSN... >_>

My annoyance is that it's a black fox tail.... why not a brown one? Eh, I'll keep to throwing the fact in X's face of how I still got an electric guitar and can play it! Well.... for two songs.

I'd love to go to one of these howeveryouspellit fairs.

I forget, is it you two, or is it someone else on these forums sharing an apartment?

Hah! Nice. :P

I need to get one sometime. Traditional style.

Though you wore it to work? Wouldn't that get awfully warm? The traditional style is wrapped around your shoulder a couple times and then the rest is like the French style, which most people associate as the Scottish kilt.

Well, you see, my options there were any colour I wanted as long as it was black. Or I could've paid an arm and a leg (they had the tools to remove them) for a white, pale blue, pale pink, or a steel one.

Uh... when'd you throw that in my face...? :?

Either way, that doesn't really make me jealous... ;)

Yeah. . .It got pretty hot, especially since I was wearing the full-length traditional shirt, and the beret. Fortunately, my desk is six feet from a huge air conditioner fed by a high-voltage power supply and a high-pressure hose.

I don't know, for some reason the renaissance faire and Medieval Times seem really similar. I saw some awesome lookin' claymores over there last time.
