[Regia-NA] Stolen Swords

[Steve Etheridge]

Hi, Guys

On Tuesday night, I had two swords stolen from the back of my car.  Twit me 
if you like for leaving them there, it can't be worse than I've done to 
myself.  Fortunately, nothing else of value was stolen.  What makes it worse 
was that one sword did not belong to me.

I know that this is a long shot, and they are more than likely to make an 
appearance at a Cardiff boot sale over the weekend.  However, if anyone does 
see or hear of them I would be deeply grateful.

The first sword is a Paul Binns blade, about 9 years old, still in good 
nick.  Blade length is approx 35", triangular pommel with silver inlay lines 
on the cross and pommel guard.  Associated scabbard  is a little worn, with 
two belt suspension loops.

The second sword is a binns blade with "blue" fittings.  Blade length is 
26", somewhat notched but still servicable. Steel curved crossguard and 
bronze trilobe pommel.  Answers to the name of "short and blunt".  
Associated scabbard and integral swordbelt.

Both swords are combat legal.  If anyone has information that leads to their 
return I will be grateful.  I would also like to know if anyone has photos 
of them that I could pass on to the police should they ever turn up.  As I 
said, a long shot.
