Functional Swords and Practice Swords

Swords are considered as one of the best and effective weapons. They have great historic value. In the past, royal families carry swords not just as a weapon but also as a symbol of their status. Even today, people keep swords with them just for the sake of their high social status.

 

You can have a huge collection of unique swords at your place and can use them for decoration purposes. And to make the collection more authentic and precious, one must keep in mind the traditional importance of swords. Collectible swords are divided into two categories – one is functional swords and the other one is display swords.

 

Functional swords give a real impact of weapons due to their highly durable and sharp edges. They are very much quality efficient swords. As a sword collector you will feel a real pride when you have some original stuff in your assortment. Display sword is the other category of swords which you can have at your place. These swords are very much light weight and are specifically meant for decoration purposes. One can easily afford this collection of weaponry as display swords are not much expensive.

 

If you are wondering to give a surprise to any history enthusiast with some thing truly special, then functional sword or display sword is the best way to impress. And if you are looking some weapon for cutting practice or martial arts practice, then practice sword is the best one. A practice sword offers the practitioner an opportunity to feel comfortable with their weapon, as these swords provides the safety of a dull wooden replica.

Functional Art

Glass Insulators

Sometimes I wonder if the beauty of functional objects can be seen as arts or crafts or just worthless creations. Then I think of my mother's small collection of glass insulators and stop wondering. Are we still creating everyday things that will one day be collectables and show this kind of beauty. I look around my room and see functional objects and almost all are plastic. There is no sense of the solid weight of those thick insulators.

I do have a pretty nicely designed Wireless Receiver. It looks really nice and functions very well but I doubt, even with time, it will have the charm of the insulators. It all makes me wonder why time seems to add depth

to the things we see. Of course as we become a more compact society everything is getting smaller and style is losing ground to function. I remember the Book and Movie Fountainhead by Ayn Rand. The hero, played by Gary Cooper, was a fiercely independent man of principles who wanted to build functional structures with no frills or features that he considered useless. Square and rectangular with no spires or gargoyles or curly trim. My conflict with this character is I liked his strength of character but I loathed his impersonal approach to the world we live in being so antiseptic. It's kind of like a passionate appeal for blandness.

Oh there's no point about what I'm saying other than my belief that there doesn't always have to be a purpose beyond intellectual stimulation in order for there to be value in what is created, produced and built.

 
 
 

   
I'll set aside what little pride I have- just to pass.

I have an algebra exam Tuesday or Thursday.
This weekend, I'm going to get my butt off my shoulders, and ask for help.
Koryn is the first person I ask!

I need some serious help.
This functional algebra makes no sense to me at all.
*sigh*
I can't fail.
I still have to take Topics in Mathematics (the easiest math offered) this summer.
I won't have time to make up this class, too.

I don't even have to retain anything!
I can manage that!
Just enough, just long enough to pass the exams!
Then I can forget it all!
Because, I can guarantee, I will never use functional algebra in counseling or english.
Algebra? Of course. I can do that. But not functional algebra, with the graphs and slopes and intercepts and domains and ranges and circles and parabolas and slope-intercept (the only one I know) and standard and general and... none of that mess.

 
 
   
 

(no subject)
i made a mailbox! nothing online or anything....a REAL mailbox! i feel so proud about it. it's not painted yet and it's not exactly perfect to the point but it'll do. especially since i've had no experience in mailbox making. or anything related. but i made a mailbox! :] and the pain i have from making it are two blisters on my fingers, a cut on my arm from something that flew out when i used the axe on the old mailbox, and.......a few cuts here and there from the sheet metal. but it's functional! and it's mine and that's all that matters!

on another thought... i updated my blog EVERY single day.. yet it says i didn't blog anything on the 15th of december. BULLSHIT!
