What are the lower items? They look like fids. I know hat pins can be used as weapons.

Love the cleaver too! You hold that up Lady Brower and people will take notice!

The lower items are sewing awls courtesy of the scarlet scarab... both ends hurt like the devil! Pins can sure be used as weapons and now I have to be very careful with that cleaver, my brother have become quite skilled in the art of sharpening and that thing is SHARP. I needs to make a sheath for it for certain. 'tis a dangerous item to be sure...

Here's a pic of most of my arsenal, but I admit several of my knives are missing from it.

I know there is a cutlery shop here in Raleigh that I've been to a few times and they have a collection of old meat cleavers like the one you posted and three of them had sheaths. One was a sheath that had a strap and baldric type leatherwork that allowed it to rest on the hip. Next time I'm in there I 'll take a picture and send it to you

Nice turks heads, did you tie them yerself?

Wrap th' handle first:
