MY BED OF DREAMS

Thanks guys

Flavio, I feel sorry for the fact that you cannot sleep on your bed, but maybe I can help you. All you need to do is get a dozen or so boxes, wrap everything carefully and ship it to me in California or Sofia, Bulgaria - wherever you prefer, I will pay for the shipping. Then you can have your bed back and finally get some good night sleep without risking a serious injury to yourself.
Now seriously, you should start separate threads for all the pieces you have not already shown on this forum.

You sir, have great taste in weapons. There's not a piece I wouldn't love to have. Thanks for sharing.

Nice rack Flavio!!!!

Seriously, you have a superb grouping of important ethnographic edged weapons there, and what I like is the scope of your collection. Just goes to show that quantity is nonessential in collecting, and you clearly show discerning judgement in your acquisitions. Nicely done!!! and I too thank you for sharing these.
All the best,
Jim

Hi Flavio,

How about buying a bunk bed with two or three decks

.
Very nice display, thank you for showing.

Thank you very much TVV, Steve, Jim and Jens i think that one of the reason to collect is also to show to other people (with the same passion, of course, because for a stamps collector all these pieces of iron are just pieces of iron

). Anyway i think to have nice pieces, nothing of really wonderful, but at this point i like the variety that i have (and that I hope to widen

). Here is the second bed

Flavio,

I completely agree with the other guys. Wonderful collection. I also would be proud to have any one of these!

I not only admire your diversity of cultures, but that each piece is a very good example of the weapon type!

I like your layout as well. It has balance and integrity.

Good job my friend!!

The collection is great...but you really have to do something about those sheets...

I am curious about the three lances (?) at the bottom. What are they called, and where are they from?
