OOoooo…

Stuff that makes me go.. ‘OOOoo…’

*******NEW**********

Well in the last couple of weeks I’ve been trying to convince Cheazles to let me buy one of these!

Only unfortunate thing is that Land Rover stopped bringing these into Australia in 2003!! So they are a little scarce unless I want to ship one in for myself!

**********************

Something else that I want… I guess maybe not an OOoooo… but more an… AWWwww…

Another watch option for those needing gift ideas for me :)

Introducing the IWC Grande Complications. I would however still accept the Vacheron (as shown below) as an alternative as the price on this baby here is outside of many people’s budgets.

Vacheron Constantin… Need I say more…VC-T

How remiss of me not to have placed this here earlier.

Presenting the XK140. Actually, I quite like the general shape of this car. Therefore the XK120-140-150 are all very much tops in my book.

Now if I could have one, I would select the XK140MC. A modified racing model. Very cool! :)

I’m finally getting around to fiddling and updating various pages.

Well something else that makes me go “Ooo… I want, I want!”

This Han Dynasty replica spear from this mob. This is probably largely influenced by the fact that all the staff techniques I have been shown by Sifu are infact for spears, and this is one of the nicer spears I have seen.

Also, since the Floro Fighting System Knife is no longer available, this is definately the other knife I’d like. For those who have seen the movie “The Hunted“, they will recognise this as the Tom Brown Tracker. Awesome looking knife which from reviews is also very usable. It would also be very cool to under go some sort of tracking training such as is offered with Tom Brown.

Things that make me go OOOoo…

Like this Howard Clark Katana… the man is a genius! The most awesome Hamon EVER!

Howard Clark is a smith based in the US. He currently is not taking any orders for swords as he is in such demand that he has orders going into 2007 already.

This below is a Han Dynasty Replica created by Zheng Wu Tang from China. Many blade smith have poor reputations coming out of China due to the poor quality of some works. However, that being said there are some very very good smiths producing many high quality products.

Now, this little gem below is the knife designed specifically for use in the Floro Fighting System, by Ray Floro. It was N the pirate who introduced me to some of the ideas from Ray’s system and when I saw this baby, I knew I had to have one… but alas… I still don’t!! BUT I WILL!!!!!! IT WILL BE MINE!!!!

*EDIT* Apparently there are some issues with the ordering and delivery of this lovely knife. Doesn’t look like I’ll be able to get my hands on one of these anymore :(

I want a Nagamaki! After messing around with a half @rsed attempt of strapping a bokken together with a hanbo, I think this toy would be awesome to train in and weild! There is more information to be had on this lovely weapon at swordforum.
